Drew Farris commented on MAHOUT-294:
------------------------------------

bq. Anyway, I'm not sure this warrants all the effort. I'm game but need a 
little more encouragement/benefits

Here's more. Also, more use cases for AbstractJob will help us work out the 
nits. When I was last working on it, I noticed that there was some frission 
between DefaultOptionsCreator and addOption(), I'm very much interested to hear 
your thoughts on the subject Jeff.

> Uniform API behavior for Jobs

> * Move AbstractJob to common and convert all the Driver classes to extend 
> that.
>    One suggestion is:
>    AlgorithmParams params = ParamsBuilder.build().withParam("-i", 
> input).withParam("-o", output)....
>    MyAlgorithmn.runJob(params) throws ParameterMissingException;
> * Give uniform command-line parameters for various algorithms.
>    e.g Currently distance measure is -d, -dm, -m at different places in 
> clustering
> * Add a temp directory as a parameter
