   Technically, it does not affect compatibility, however, we did remove older 
versions from system-tests (to keep the builds greeen). We cannot test 0.10.0 
and 0.10.1 at all, but also had to remove versions up-to including 2.7 (at 
least for now)

    - https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/17328/
   
   It's a somewhat ongoing discussion though (cf 
https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/17843), and thus I don't think we can 
finalize this PR right now? -- In the end, we might want to add back a few 
version to system tests after 17843 is merged.
   
   I would wait until the discussion settles before we finalize this PR.
   
   However, I don't feel confident to have older versions in the docs which we 
don't test any longer, and call them compatible, as compatibility is not 
verified any longer, and could break without us noticing it (we just need to 
figure out which these older versions are), and I would propose remove 
everything from the compatibility matrix we don't test any longer.
