Hello,

I want to discuss Shell interpreter issue with you.

For your information, we had a security report using Shell interpreter to
execute malicious code with a system account. As you know, it's a kind of
characteristic of Apache Zeppelin but some contributors including me
thought it was too risky even if it's a feature. Moreover, I thought that
we had some workarounds to do similar executions.

However, after releasing it, there were many questions via several channels
about the deprecation of Shell interpreter.

I would like to follow the community's decision. For one more piece of
information, we already have a security page to warn the code execution
feature so we can keep the Shell interpreter without any further treatment.

Could you please give me your opinion on this?

If we conclude keeping it, I'll release a new release of 0.11.2 including
Shell interpreter again.

Best regards,
Jongyoul Lee
