PR for upgrading to Flink 1.15.2 has been merged. Thanks for the efforts, Galen and Filip!
We should be ready to kick off a new release for StateFun with the Flink version upgrade. I'll cut off a release branch now on apache/flink-statefun for release-3.3.x to move things forward. @Galen, @Filip if you want to, after the release branch is cut, you could probably upgrade the master branch to Flink 1.16.x as well. Afterwards we should decide who is available to drive the actual release process for 3.3.0. There's quite a few steps that would require committer write access. Unless someone else is up for this earlier, I'll have some availability towards the end of next week to help drive this.
