Hi Jerome, I haven't had to use external jars yet (I've pushed the logic I need into chukwa instead), but I would like to have a solution where including an external jar is just a matter of adding a jar to a local directory. Similar to how Hive has the auxlibs/ dir. It sounds like your solution aligns with this approach. If that's the case, I'm in favor of it.
