> I think we should not spend time on this, since we're dropping zookeeper from ducktape in the next release. > -1 Hello @cmccabe, Thanks for your suggestion, but for e2e testing, we need to verify functionality across different Kafka versions. Although version 4.0 no longer supports ZooKeeper, testing older Kafka versions remains necessary. Kafka places a strong emphasis on backward compatibility, and since the baseline is still version 2.1, we need to validate Kafka versions 2.1 through 2.3. Therefore, this PR is still essential. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
