Hi Mikhail, 0.11 is backwards compatible, so there's no reason why Python Kafka clients would not be supported. In addition, kafka-python and confluent-kafka-python were tested against 0.11.0 before the final release of 0.11.0.0. We go to great lengths to ensure backwards compatibility to avoid situations where people cannot upgrade.
With regards to testing 0.11.0.1 in staging, that's sensible. Given that we don't have a release manager for 0.10.2.2 yet, it would probably quicker to start testing 0.11.0.1 in staging and migrate to that than to wait for 0.10.2.2 to be released.
