>
> The [documentation of
> watermarks|https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-1.2/dev/event_time.html#event-time-and-watermarks]
> is not correct. It states
> {quote}
> A Watermark(t) declares that event time has reached time t in that stream,
> meaning that all events with a timestamps t’ < t have occurred.
> {quote}
> whereas the JavaDocs which is aligned with implementation says
> {quote}
> A Watermark tells operators that receive it that no elements with a
> timestamp older or equal to the watermark timestamp should arrive at the
> operator.
> {quote}
> The documentation needs to be updated. Moreover, we need to carefully check
> that the watermark semantics are correctly described in other pages of the
> documentation and blog posts published on the Flink website.
