Is there a way for us to change the module (in a reasonable way) that would allow users to continue using it?
Is it an API problem, or one of semantics?

Hi Chesnay,

Unfortunately not from what I can see in the code.
This is the reason why I am opening a discussion. I think that if we
supported backwards compatibility, this would have been an easier
process.

Are older versions of the module compatible with 1.12+?

Hi all,

As the title suggests, this thread is to discuss the removal of the
flink-connector-filesystem module which contains (only) the deprecated
BucketingSink. The BucketingSin is deprecated since FLINK 1.9 [1] in
favor of the relatively recently introduced StreamingFileSink.

For the sake of a clean and more manageable codebase, I propose to
remove this module for release-1.12, but of course we should see first
if there are any usecases that depend on it.

Let's have a fruitful discussion.

Cheers,
Kostas
