### Compatibility
-The modern Kafka connector is compatible with older and newer Kafka brokers
through the compatibility guarantees of the Kafka client API and broker. The
modern Kafka connector is compatible with broker versions 0.11.0 or later,
depending on the features used. For details on Kafka compatibility, please
refer to the [Kafka
documentation](https://kafka.apache.org/protocol.html#protocol_compatibility).

Review comment:
I think we should give this connector a consistent name, either `universal `
or `modern`. Not both.
