Github user StephanEwen commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/306#issuecomment-69965915 I think this is fine to merge. FYI: I sometimes repeat the `Serializable` interface in the list of superinterfaces (even when redundant) as a form of documentation. It makes it clear upon reading the class signature that it is expected to be serializable. So anyone extending the class is easier aware of that.
