Hi,
I've just merged https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/23014 into trunk
which address one of the 4.4 blockers.

It should also be cherry-picked to 4.4.

Thanks,
Andrew

What do you think?

I have three smaller merged PRs I would like to cherry-pick to
4.4
branch. If we don't cherry-pick now, I would need to cycle back
to
cherry-pick for 4.4.1 release what seems unnecessary bookkeeping
overhead.

Given that we are waiting for some blockers to get resolved
anyway,
there should be zero impact on the release; all three are low
risk of
course.

Please let me know:
- https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/23080
- https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/23002
- https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/23143

Hi Chia-Ping,
That decision sounds good to me. I marked it as fixed in 4.5.0
and
will not cherry pick it to the 4.4 branch.
Thanks!

hi José

Actually, we did NOT extend the code freeze :)

The only commits we are pushing to the 4.4 branch right now
are to
revert incomplete KIPs.

KAFKA-16517 is a kind of performance optimization, right? If
so, it
doesn't seem necessary for 4.4.0.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Best,
Chia-Ping

Hi Chia-Ping,

Thanks for volunteering to release 4.4. Since we extended
the code
freeze to Aug 19th, I would like to include KAFKA-16517 in
the 4.4
release.

Do you agree? Can I cherry pick the commit
(https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/22805) to the 4.4
branch?

Thanks,
-José
