Hi everyone,

As was discussed quite a while ago, the community has planned to drop
support for Scala 2.11 [1]. I'm proposing to also drop the Scala Shell,
which was briefly discussed in the email thread for dropping Scala 2.11 [2].

The Scala Shell doesn't work on Scala 2.12 [3] and there hasn't been much
traction to get this working and it looks like the Flink community /
committers don't want to maintain it anymore. Alternatively, if there's
still someone interested in the Scala Shell, it could also be moved to a
3rd party repository. Removing the Scala Shell would/could help in getting
Scala 2.11 dropped quicker.

Let me know your thoughts.

Best regards,
