[~srowen] Yep, that's the one.

True. However it is the key part in providing the functionality of spark 
deployment on EC2, which is documented quite prominently on the Spark site, and 
the entry point of which is in the spark repo (ec2/spark_ec2.py). Bugs against 
this functionality are therefore also filed here under EC2 module.

I assume the decision to have a separate repo was for implementation/design 
reasons ( ?? ). Having spark_ec2.py cause this repo to be cloned and executed 
on EC2 is a really nice way of providing the functionality. But that's an 
assumption on my part and [~shivaram] would know best.

So from a user perspective, it would appear to be part of Spark (users may not 
even be aware that part of the functionality lives in a separate repo).

Since it's a great way to get Spark running on EC2, it would be great to get 
the licencing sorted out. This appears to be the best place to raise this issue.

> There is no LICENSE file or licence headers in the code in the spark-ec2 
> repo. Also, I believe there is no contributor license agreement notification 
> in place (like there is in the main spark repo).
> It would be great to fix this (sooner better than later while contributors 
> list is small), so that users wishing to use this part of Spark are not in 
> doubt over licensing issues.
