The idea seems interesting, but I'm wondering if we have considered publishing .tz file hosted somewhere in Flink site with a link in the doc. This might avoid the "overkill" of introducing a repo, which is main used for version control in development cycles. On the other hand, a docker setup, once published, will seldom (if ever) go thru revisions.
