Hi, Fred >>> I'm currently experimenting with a local build of Flink 2.1.0-rc1 and a local build of the Flink Kafka Connector 4.0.0. While building the Flink Kafka Connector, I encountered an issue: the static method DataTypeUtils::stripRowPrefix(...) appears to have been removed from the Flink codebase.
Was this removal intentional? And if so, does the Flink Kafka Connector still need to be updated to reflect this change? The method `DataTypeUtils::stripRowPrefix` is removed in PR[1] by timo. This is a normal codebase change, we should update the flink dependency in Kafka connector after Flink 2.1 release. >>> Also, I'm curious, what is the typical process for releasing a new version of Flink? Do the Flink Connectors receive a new release as part of that process as well? I've followed the community rule to create a Jira ticket[2] to track the Flink connector version upgrade for Flink 2.1. After Flink 2.1 release, we should push the connector flink version update to 2.1.0.
