Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-2972:
--------------------------------------

Is that an issue? 
The regular Maven artifact that users would include does not depend on Scala, right?

> The {{flink-java}} module has a transitive dependency on Scala due to Twitter's Chill library. Chill is used within Flink's KryoSerializer to obtain a Kryo instance that has be initialized for Scala classes. 
> In order to decouple {{flink-java}} from Scala, its dependency on Chill needs to be removed.
