Shane Kumpf commented on SLIDER-175:
------------------------------------

That makes sense. As there are HDFS operations that need to occur, what is the 
recommended python client for interacting with HDFS in a platform agnostic way? 
WebHDFS? I can work on porting these to python.

The design could be improved upon as well. setup_slider is a bit misleading as 
it both installs and launches apps. It would probably be good to split out 
those functionalities. My thought is remove the launch functionality completely 
setup_slider and improve the included bin/slider to be able to leverage a 
config file for environment details.
