Hello,

I have gone through all the web pages on Helium. I tried to run a sample
application of Helium on Eclipse. Here's what I did:

=> download the zip of SparkMon on Helium proposal page [0] and extract it
in a folder.
=> open eclipse and click on 'import' option, then select 'Existing Maven
Project' option.
=> choose the SparkMon project folder and click on finish.
=> eclipse loads the project in the 'Package Explorer' and the progress tab
shows 'importing Maven projects' and downloads some jars from [1].

The downloading takes a lot of time, in fact gets stuck at 9%. Right
clicking on the main() of SparkMon shows the option of 'Run Configuration'
but does not show 'Run Application'.

Please let me know whether I'm going correct or not, and how to proceed if
I want to run the Spark-Mon sample application inside of Zeppelin.

Also, I think Helium was designed primarily as a collaboration tool so that
users may be able to package their code and download from repository and
run inside notebook. However, I will be working alone on my data sets for
the project, there will be no collaborators, so I think to use Helium we
would have to write new Helium applications on my machine or use some
existing Helium application to be used with Zeppelin. Please correct me if
I'm wrong.
