Hi Tim, I replied to your question on the previous email you sent. Didn't you receive it?
*Hi Tim,* *Thanks for your interest in Apache Kafka.* *The page you mention is still contains valid information regarding the End of Life cycle: Apache Kafka maintains the latest 3 versions. Currently, this means 3.6.2, 3.7.1 and 3.8.0.* *In a few weeks we hope to have released 3.9.0, which would then imply that 3.6.2 has reached EOL.* *Apache Kafka doesn't use GitHub for releases, but rather the ASF mechanisms, under kafka.apache.org/downloads <http://kafka.apache.org/downloads> you can find all different releases. In there you can find the 3 actively maintained releases and older ones (EOL) under the archive section.* *Hopefully this helps. Let me know if you have further questions.* Best, On Fri, Aug 30, 2024 at 2:17 PM Tim Carroll <tcarr...@perforce.com.invalid> wrote: > hi all. > > can someone point me to a reference that describes the apache kafka > release lifecycle and/or a page that has EoL dates for various versions? > > i'm looking for information on what versions of the product are currently > supported by the community, and dates/information that outlines when that > support will expire. > > > * it looks like this page is dated - > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Time+Based+Release+Plan#TimeBasedReleasePlan-WhatIsOurEOLPolicy > * releases are not tracked using github devices - > https://github.com/apache/kafka/releases > * there are release tags - https://github.com/apache/kafka/tags, but > there isn't any associated lifecycle attribution. > > any insights much appreciated. > > thanks, tim > > > > This e-mail may contain information that is privileged or confidential.
