Hi, Colin,

First, since we are changing the format of LeaderAndIsrRequest, which is an
inter broker request, it seems that we will need IBP during rolling
upgrade. Could we add that to the compatibility section?

Regarding UnsupportedVersionException, even without ZK node version bump,
we probably want to only use the new ZK value fields after all brokers have
been upgraded to the new binary. Otherwise, the reassignment task may not
be completed if the controller changes to a broker still on the old binary.
IBP is one way to achieve that. The main thing is that we need some way for
the controller to deal with the new ZK fields. Dealing with the additional
ZK node version bump seems a small thing on top of that?

Thanks,

Jun
