Release 0.17.5

This patch release fixes a bug where a schema registry backup failed as soon as it encountered a subject name with special characters.

Installation

For new installations, see the Installation guide.

For upgrading existing installations, see the associated Upgrading to 0.17.x guide.

Bug fixes

• Registry backup: a single subject containing a character other than a letter, digit, dot, dash, underscore, or slash, such as a colon, a space, or a dollar sign, made the whole backup fail with “Invalid subject name”. Registries accept arbitrary subject names, so the backup now accepts them too and backs up every subject.
