Good question. I couldn't find anything about it except for 9ef6796e [1] where it was excluded from the Maven deployment. Unfortunately, no Jira issue is attached with additional documentation.
@Martijn Visser <martijnvis...@apache.org> How is the docs generation intended to be used? It looks like it's done by integrating the connector docs as git submodules which then makes sure that the connector-specific config option documentation is generated along the Flink docs. @tison What's the scenario in which you want to use the generation logic?
