a) Nothing in there was @Public afaict
b) even if a) weren't the case, we voted on it
c) there was an appreciable benefit in dropping Mesos, since it paved the way for Scala-free Flink

OK, I see your point.

Just a question here. Mesos is deprecated in 1.13 here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-22352
and now I don't see any Mesos related classes in 1.16-SNAPSHOT.

No matter from which angle I take a look at it this is breaking change. What makes the 2 cases different?

    The japicm-plugin did exactly what it was supposed to be doing.

    We can't remove these fields because they are part of a @Public class
    and hence have to remain until Flink 2.0.

    Adding an exclusion for @Deprecated is a bad idea because it makes it
    way to easy to break the API.
