[~twalthr] Could you find someone to gauge how difficult this would be?

>            Reporter: Lucas Heimberg
>            Priority: Major

> As of version 1.11, Flink (i.e., flink-avro) still uses Avro in version 1.8.2.
> Avro 1.9.2 contains many bugfixes, in particular in respect to the support for logical types. A further advantage would be that an upgrade to Avro 1.9.2 would also allow to use the Confluent Schema Registry client and Avro deserializer in version 5.5.0, which finally support schema references.
> Therefore it would be great if Flink could make use of Avro 1.9.2 or higher in future releases.
