Github user arminwasicek commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/pull/3001 The story is that Amazon deprecated their use of json.org and moved to jackson. The Zeppelin code in question uses on json.org through the import of the Amazon lib. The change I'm proposing is to explicitly include json.org, so everything else can stay the same. Using gson (or jackson via amazon for that matter) would make sense, but this entails changing more code.
