Flink connector builds nicely against this schema-registry dependency. The dependency updates are compliant.

For gradle version updates, it's not only the property changes, it also contains the gradlew script and wrapper jar update, check gradle wrapper

LGTM, versions are aligned with Pravega dependency versions, which should reduce the probability of conflicts (if any). I'm ok as long as this build has been tested with downstream components using it (e.g., connectors).

@crazyzhou, I have created a GH issue to track this:- #257
We will take it up soon after this.

As discussed, the wrapper issue would be taken care in the next release.
Approved.
