Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-106:
------------------------------------------
I'm +1 on making things easier for new users but I think the drawbacks might
outweigh the benefits here: using relative paths means that if I run
`bin/cassandra` from trunk/, i will have trunk/storage, but if I run
`./cassandra` from trunk/bin, i will have trunk/bin/storage. That's worse than
having to mkdir /var/cassandra IMO.
