Hi David, The release plan looks good to me.
But since the 4.0 release is a release without ZK, I'm wondering if we should list some release criteria for it? The Problem I can imagine is like, when the code freeze date is reached, but there are still many ZK removal tasks open, what should we do with them? We can remove the rest of codes in later releases, but if there are still some public APIs related to ZK open for users to use, is that still OK to release 4.0? Ex: The `--zookeeper` option in kafka-configs.sh? Instead of only using time-based management in v4.0, I'm suggesting we should list some "must-do" tasks and track them when milestone date approaches. And we can discuss with the community if there are some delayed tasks. Does that make sense? Thanks.
