Hi everyone,

I would like to discuss deprecating Flinks' Twitter connector [1]. This was
one of the first connectors that was added to Flink, which could be used to
access the tweets from Twitter. Given the evolution of Flink over Twitter,
I don't think that:

* Users are still using this connector at all
* That the code for this connector should be in the main Flink codebase.

Given the circumstances, I would propose to deprecate and remove this
connector. I'm looking forward to your thoughts. If you agree, please also
let me know if you think we should first deprecate it in Flink 1.15 and
remove it in a version after that, or if you think we can remove it
directly.

Best regards,
