This is a top priority IMO.  We can start the discussions around how do we
wanna modularize Pirk.

Would there be use cases wherein some application just needs the Responder
only as a jar.

OR

Responder on Storm jar, Responder on Flink jar ....

Same thing with Query.

the rest of the classes could probably be part of a "pirk-core" module (and
its own jar)

Does Apache Infra provide a hadoop/spark cluster? I didn't think they did
but I could be wrong.

I am presently in Berlin attending #FlinkForward and will be back home next
week. We can start discussions around the next steps and plan for the next
release.
