-------------------------------------
[~trohrmann] Thanks for the ping. If the upgrade is feasible for a 1.11 patch
release, it would be a clear yes from my side. If not, I would understand. ;)
> Upgrade to Avro version 1.10.0 from 1.8.2

> Key: FLINK-18192
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-18192
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Formats (JSON, Avro, Parquet, ORC, SequenceFile)
> Reporter: Lucas Heimberg
> Assignee: Dawid Wysakowicz
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.12.0
>
>
> As of version 1.11, Flink (i.e., flink-avro) still uses Avro in version 1.8.2.
> Avro 1.9.2 contains many bugfixes, in particular in respect to the support
> for logical types. A further advantage would be that an upgrade to Avro 1.9.2
> would also allow to use the Confluent Schema Registry client and Avro
> deserializer in version 5.5.0, which finally support schema references.
> Therefore it would be great if Flink could make use of Avro 1.9.2 or higher
> in future releases.
