Thank you all for figuring out a solution for the security pull request.

Lets try to get 1.2 feature freezed as fast as possible so that we can
"unblock" waiting features like FLIP-6 and the remaining security changes.

*What do you think about Friday evening (6pm Berlin, 9am US west coast) for
feature freezing Flink 1.2?* (only bugfixes are allowed in afterwards)
I'll then fork-off a "release-1.2" branch and update the version in
"master" to 1.3-SNAPSHOT.
Please object if you have a bigger change or any other reservations
regarding the feature freeze date!

This is my current view of things on the release:

- RESOLVED dynamic Scaling / Key Groups (FLINK-3755)
- RESOLVED Add Rescalable Non-Partitioned State (FLINK-4379)
- UNRESOLVED Add Flink 1.1 savepoint backwards compatability (FLINK-4797)
- RESOLVED [Split for 1.3] Integrate Flink with Apache Mesos (FLINK-1984)
- UNDER DISCUSSION Secure Data Access (FLINK-3930)
- RESOLVED Queryable State (FLINK-3779)
- RESOLVED Metrics in Webinterface (FLINK-4389)
- RESOLVED Kafka 0.10 support (FLINK-4035)
- RESOLVED Table API: Group Window Aggregates (FLINK-4691, FLIP-11)
