I am not a maintainer but was just looking at a few changes. I think it is possible this should say "Supports Go 1.19+", based on this line: https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-go/blob/master/kafka/README.md?plain=1#L5 ; It would be nice if a maintainer could confirm while we are fixing the documentation.

It's a bit confusing - we do intend to support Go1.17 for end users as long as we can (hence the root directory README.md). I'll add something to the CI to check go 1.17 builds in release tags as well.

But it's unreasonable to expect a developer to be using Go1.17 which doesn't have official support. So we ask the developers working on to use the oldest officially supported version as in the kafka/README.md, which was last updated when go1.19 was still supported.

It should be 1.20 now. I'll try to update that.
