    Thanks for your feedback. I'm just getting started with (building) `storm`.
    
    > Python doesn't have package manager so if you don't have python, you need 
to install manually.
    
    I don't understand completely. Do you mean that `python` doesn't have a 
built-in package manager which allows bootstrapping `python.` Is that really 
necessary to mention? And is it important where people get their `python` from 
(source installation, package managers)? -> I'd leave users with the 
information that they need `python` & co and add links for famous OSs if people 
start to ask too many questions on the mailing list.
    
    > continue explaining RVM and NVM with clarifying it's for convenience, not 
requirement.
    
    With `python`, `ruby` and `nodejs` installed I'm getting the (extremely 
unclear) error `Clojure failed` - I can provide more details if you want (I 
found https://github.com/talios/clojure-maven-plugin/issues/80 which speculates 
that `Clojure failed` indicates missing binaries) -, so that imo `rvm` and 
`nvm` are a requirement - if not other build instructions are necessary because 
`mvn clean install` doesn't work out-of-the-box, like one might think after 
reading `DEVELOPER.md`. What is your insight on this?
