+== *Release 2.7.0.Beta2* _(June 13rd 2024)_
+
+See the https://issues.redhat.com/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12317320&version=12429023[complete list of issues].
+
+=== Kafka compatibility
+
+This release has been built against Kafka Connect 3.7.0 and has been tested with version 3.7.0 of the Kafka brokers.
+See the https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#upgrade[Kafka documentation] for compatibility with other versions of Kafka brokers.
+
+
+=== Upgrading
+
+Before upgrading any connector, be sure to check the backward-incompatible changes that have been made since the release you were using.
+
+When you decide to upgrade one of these connectors to 2.7.0.Beta2 from any earlier versions,
+first check the migration notes for the version you're using.
+Gracefully stop the running connector, remove the old plugin files, install the 2.7.0.Beta2 plugin files, and restart the connector using the same configuration.
+Upon restart, the 2.7.0.Beta2 connectors will continue where the previous connector left off.
+As one might expect, all change events previously written to Kafka by the old connector will not be modified.
+
+If you are using our container images, then please do not forget to pull them fresh from https://quay.io/organization/debezium[Quay.io].
+
+
+=== Breaking changes
+
+PostgreSQL 10 and 11 are end of life for one or more years.
+Debezium now supports both versions as best effort only.
+No testing is done and no issues specific to these two versions will be proactively fixed by the core team.
+The community contributions will be accepted (https://issues.redhat.com/browse/DBZ-7128[DBZ-7128]).
