Kamal Lanka commented on FLINK-7673:
------------------------------------

Both KPL and KCL are now Apache 2.0. This should unblock pushing connectors to 
Maven right?

> Flink Kinesis connector - remove dependency on the ASL code

> This prevents the connector being published to Maven Central. I would like to 
> contribute to Flink Kinesis connector by replacing the ASL licensed code with 
> an implementation using AWS SDK for Java. For that, I'd like to understand 
> two things:
> - what's the correct process for making the contribution (contributor 
> agreement, etc.)
> - what's the minimum functionality the alternative implementation would have 
> to provide in order to get accepted
> There are three classes in the connector's source requiring modification:
> - org.apache.flink.streaming.connectors.kinesis.FlinkKinesisProducer
> - org.apache.flink.streaming.connectors.kinesis.util.KinesisConfigUtil
> - org.apache.flink.streaming.connectors.kinesis.internals.ShardConsumer
> Thank you.
