Release: 3.0.0
Please keep the discussion on the mailing list rather than commenting on the wiki (wiki discussions get unwieldy fast).
Connector-specific client overrides were added in KIP-458, but that feature was not enabled by default since it may not have been backward compatible. But with AK 3.0.0, we have the opportunity to enable connector client overrides by default.
Change the default for the `connector.client.config.override.policy` worker configuration property to `All`. KIP-458 defined this property with a default of `None` to maintain backward compatibility.
No other changes are proposed.
As discussed in KIP-458, enabling this property in worker configuration does not by itself change behavior, but it merely allows connector configurations to define additional properties that override the producer, consumer, and/or admin properties.
AK 3.0.0 is a major release and thus a good time to make this change. In the unlikely case that a connector defines such consumer.override.* or producer.override.* properties, the connector client overrides can be manually disabled in the Connect cluster's worker configuration.
Leaving the default as None .
