--------------------------------------

I think one is enough.  If all jars are present, as from subversion, tests will 
run correctly.  If no jars are present, as in a release, tests will be skipped. 
 If only some jars are present, an unsupported configuration, tests will crash. 
 That seems fine to me.

> An FTP client that stores content directly into HDFS allows data from FTP 
> serves to be stored directly into HDFS instead of first copying the data 
> locally and then uploading it into HDFS. The benefits are apparent from an 
> administrative perspective as large datasets can be pulled from FTP servers 
> with minimal human intervention.
