-------------------------------------------------------------

I've just seen that the DynamoDB streams proxy has had the license change merged, which I believe is now all of the dependencies. 

HOWEVER: it hasn't been deployed to maven yet that I can see and the version has not been bumped beyond 1.4.0 which looks to last have been uploaded to central in June 2018

At the same time I got curious about the ongoing licensing for the KCL v1.x and saw that it too now is licensed under Apache 2.0 :D

that means that this change may be able to become a LOT simpler once the DynamoDBStreamsProxy is published, and we can kick the can down the road for updating to KCL v2.0

I've posted an issue to the repo asking for a timeframe for the code to be released under the new license: [https://github.com/awslabs/dynamodb-streams-kinesis-adapter/issues/24]

>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Connectors / Kinesis

> Currently the referenced Kinesis Client Library and Kinesis Producer Library code in the flink-connector-kinesis is licensed under the Amazon Software License which is not compatible with the Apache License. This then requires a fair amount of work in the CI pipeline and for users who want to use the flink-connector-kinesis.
> The Kinesis Client Library v2.x and the AWS Java SDK v2.x both are now on the Apache 2.0 license.
> [https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-kinesis-client/blob/master/LICENSE.txt]
> [https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-java-v2/blob/master/LICENSE.txt]
> There is a PR for the Kinesis Producer Library to update it to the Apache 2.0 license ([https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-kinesis-producer/pull/256])
> The task should include, but not limited to, upgrading KCL/KPL to new versions of Apache 2.0 license, changing licenses and NOTICE files in flink-connector-kinesis, and adding flink-connector-kinesis to build, CI and artifact publishing pipeline, updating the build profiles, updating documentation that references the license incompatibility
> The expected outcome of this issue is that the flink-connector-kinesis will be included with the standard build artifacts and will no longer need to be built separately by users.
