Fwd: Avro and Kafka Schema Registry Client versions out of date
Hello, I noticed that even in Flink 1.11. Avro in flink-avro and the Kafka Schema Registry client in flink-avro-confluent-registry are still at version 1.8.2 and 4.1.0, respectively. Avro 1.9.2 brings a lot of improvements and bugfixes, in particular in respect to logical types. The Kafka Schema Registry Client 5.5.0 finally supports schema references, i.e., schemas that are composed from different subjects of the Schema Registry, which is a very useful feature for the reuse of schemas. I would like to ask if there are plans to bump both version numbers in the near future, or whether there are specific obstacles for that? Thank you very much & kind regards, Lucas -- Dr. Lucas Heimberg
