Hey Vasia, I really like the idea and it seems we have some volunteers from our side already! It is in my opinion a starter task since it requires to create a simple adapter for flink as well as mapping abstractions to our streaming topology API in a similar fashion (in its simplest form just using several flatmaps).
It will serve as a suitable common layer to make some comparisons between flink-streaming to storm, s4 and samoa on incremental machine learning tasks.
