Re: [DISCUSS] Apache Kafka 2.7.1 release

[John Roesler <vv...@apache.org>]

Hi Mickael,

I hope all is well with you.

FYI, I have just pushed the fix to this blocker:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-12508
to the 2.7 branch. I'll resolve the ticket after I finish
pushing to 2.6.

Thanks,
John
