+[[release-2.4.1-final]]
+== *Release 2.4.1.Final* _(November 16th 2023)_
+
+See the https://issues.redhat.com/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12317320&version=12414496[complete list of issues].
+
+=== Kafka compatibility
+
+This release has been built against Kafka Connect 3.5.1 and has been tested with version 3.5.1 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 2.4.1.Final 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 2.4.1.Final plugin files, and restart the connector using the same configuration.
+Upon restart, the 2.4.1.Final 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].
