Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to mention a learning while packing apex for bigtop
(Something we can think about in future).
We should probably have a mvn profile at top level pom which can called
optionally be invoked and which will package the apex and all its
dependency in a single tarball. This tarball can then just be extracted and
one is readily use apex.

I don't know whether this is inline with ASF guidelines, but this I think
this can be a nice addition.
Something to think about in future.

Thanks,
Chinmay.
