Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-1044:
-------------------------------------

I think this can still be useful for users that have no experience with 
Maven/SBT setups.
Especially for Eclipse, which does not even come with Maven by default in some 
builds.
The easiest thing for inexperienced users would be to actually have a working 
project, containing the project files and libraries, rather just the maven 
files in the project.

The challenge with this is how to keep this up do date, without having to 
rebuild the project and ZIP manually on every (minor) release.
