Bowen Li created FLINK-8188:
-------------------------------
Summary: Clean up flink-contrib
Key: FLINK-8188
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8188
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.5.0
Reporter: Bowen Li
This is the umbrella ticket for cleaning up flink-contrib.
We argue that flink-contrib should be removed and all its submodules should be
migrated to other top-level modules for the following reasons:
1) Apache Flink the whole project itself is a result of contributions from many
developers, there's no reason to highlight some contributions in a dedicated
module named 'contrib'
2) flink-contrib is already too crowded and noisy. It contains lots of sub
modules with different purposes which confuse developers and users, and they
lack a proper project hierarchy
3) This will save us quite some build time
