@vrozov As I understand from the [release
notes](https://github.com/Esri/geometry-api-java/releases/tag/v2.0.0), the main
reason for the major version change was changing the interface due to the
removing org.json dependency. Gis storage plugin provides UDF functions, and
they are covered by the existing unit tests, so since all tests are passed this
change does not break drill-gis.
I think this change should be merged in the current release, but I don't
know when other PR will be merged. Also, another pull request isn't affected by
changing esri-geometry-api library, ie this change does not break changes made
there.
