Thanks for the replies so far! Just to provide a brief update on the status of blockers for 1.11.3 so far:
*PR opened, pending reviewer*- [FLINK-19717] SourceReaderBase.pollNext may return END_OF_INPUT if SplitReader.fetch throws ( https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/13776) *PR opened, reviewed + close to being merged* - [FLINK-19741] Timer service should skip restoring from raw keyed stream if it isn't the writer (https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/13761) - [FLINK-19748] Raw keyed stream key group iterator should be skipping unwritten key groups (https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/13772) *Merged* - [FLINK-19154] Application mode deletes HA data in case of suspended ZooKeeper connection - [FLINK-19569] Upgrade ICU4J to 67.1+ Right now as it seems, progress is mainly blocked on a reviewer for FLINK-19717. Meanwhile, Xintong is keeping an eye on test instabilities [1] to see if there are any fixes that should be applied to `release-1.11`. This is also a reminder, that if there are other blockers that we need to be aware of, or a need to re-establish estimated time for getting fixes in and delay the RC for 1.11.3, please do let us know!
