Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-1339:
-----------------------------------------
I don't intend to remove the exec source. I just want to implement something
like that as a client API.

> Originally when the exec source was implemented there was no SDK. It would be
> useful to have an API provided in the sdk that works like the exec source,
> thus removing the requirement of having an entire agent on hosts where the
> exec source is used for tailing logs.
> Maybe we can provide a standalone client that implements it too, which users
> can use off the shelf.
