The tag builds fine, and launching a cluster from the dist the right way
works. That said, if you aren't using properties files, a missing param
could be a bit harsh:
host-78-65-196-230:whirr-0.2.0-incubating adriancole$ whirr launch-cluster
--service-name hadoop --cluster-name adrian --provider ec2 --identity
XXXXXXX --credential XXXXXXXX
Launching adrian cluster
Configuring template

Looking at the code, this is due to a missing parameter
(--instance-templates), but I think it could be handled more gracefully.
That said, rtfm would not have resulted in a NPE. Should we address this or
list as a known issue and push on?
Did anyone try with a windows machine? I'm just curious.
