Ryan Williams commented on SPARK-4501:
--------------------------------------
I've not worked on it other than installing zinc for myself in a couple of
environments, [~boyork]; still not sure what the ideal deliverable here would
look like. Happy to discuss here or if you have an idea then go for it!
> Create build/mvn to automatically download maven/zinc/scalac

> For a long time we've had the sbt/sbt and this works well for users who want
> to build Spark with minimal dependencies (only Java). It would be nice to
> generalize this to maven as well and have build/sbt and build/mvn, where
> build/mvn was a script that downloaded Maven, Zinc, and Scala locally and set
> them up correctly. This would be totally "opt in" and people using system
> maven would be able to continue doing so.
> My sense is that very few maven users are currently using Zinc even though
> from some basic tests I saw a huge improvement from using this. Also, having
> a simple way to use Zinc would make it easier to use Maven on our jenkins
> test machines.
