I just checked the documentation page and could not find any reference to the KIP-631 configurations like process.roles, node.id and any of the controller.quorum.* configs https://kafka.apache.org/28/documentation.html
Were these left out on purpose or should there be included in the 2.8 documentation page as well? In the README.md file for KIP-500 (KRaft) mode, I see these configs: https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/2.8/config/kraft/README.md However, I don't see them in the documentation page where most users will check first https://kafka.apache.org/28/documentation.html A lot of users looking to try out KRaft mode are going to be very confused on how to set this up without Zookeeper to check things out. When you have a moment, please share your thoughts regarding if these configs/settings need to be in this 2.8 documentation for this release. Thanks.
