Ankur Goenka commented on BEAM-6230:
------------------------------------

i agree, that we can selectively support some flink versions for longer.

The challenge I see is that users might not even be aware of deprecation of 
beam support for flink version till they go about updating beam or flink and we 
might come to know about such cases after we have deprecated old flink version.

We can have clear guide lines about unsupporting old flink version on master. 
Of course old beam version will keep on supporting old flink version.

> Document Flink version support policy

> There have been discussions about which version of Flink should be supported 
> in Beam and release 2.10 adds support for building the runner for multiple 
> Flink versions. We should document our Flink version support policy so users 
> know what to expect.
