Robert Metzger commented on FLINK-3924:
---------------------------------------

I think this will be a problem till Kinesis/Amazon solves the problem.
But I haven't checked recently if they changed something.

> The Kinesis connector is currently creating a fat jar with a custom protobuf version (2.6.1), relocated into a different package.
> We need to build the fat jar to change the protobuf calls from the original protobuf to the relocated one.
> Because Kinesis is licensed under the Amazon Software License (which is not entirely to the ASL2.0), I don't want to deploy kinesis connector binaries to maven central with the releases. These binaries would contain code from Amazon. It would be more than just linking to an (optional) dependencies.
