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

             Summary: Activate japicmp-maven-plugin checks for @PublicEvolving between bug fix releases (x.y.u -> x.y.v)
                 Key: FLINK-17844
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-17844
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Build System
            Reporter: Till Rohrmann


According to https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/rc58099fb0e31d0eac951a7bbf7f8bda8b7b65c9ed0c04622f5333745%40%3Cdev.flink.apache.org%3E, the community has decided to establish stricter API and binary stability guarantees. Concretely, the community voted to guarantee API and binary stability for {{@PublicEvolving}} annotated classes between bug fix release (x.y.u -> x.y.v).

Hence, I would suggest to activate this check by adding a new {{japicmp-maven-plugin}} entry into Flink's {{pom.xml}} which checks for {{@PublicEvolving}} classes between bug fix releases. We might have to update the release guide to also include updating this configuration entry.
