------------------------------------------
[~davidmoravek] This was previously assigned to me. I already have an old PR
for this ready. Happy to let you review the PR though.
> Drop support for Flink 1.5 and 1.6

> Key: BEAM-7962
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-7962
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: runner-flink
> Reporter: Maximilian Michels
> Assignee: David Moravek
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.16.0
>
>
> With Flink 1.9 around the corner, we should consider dropping support for
> Flink 1.5 and 1.6.
> This will get rid of Flink 1.5/1.6 specific workarounds, e.g. make use of
> Flink's {{preSnapshotBarrier}} in {{AbstractStreamOperator}} which removes
> the needs to buffer elements during a snapshot.
> Dropping 1.5/1.6 will also decrease the build time.
