Stefan Groschupf commented on PIG-117:
--------------------------------------

For now I suggest to have one pig-core jar and all dependencies cleanly listed 
or distributed with it.
Sure we should have as less as possible dependencies. But my experience is that 
most users are ok with a couple of jars in a lib folder as long they dont need 
to maintain those jars.
The user experience should be: 
Download zip file
extract file
start shell scrip
start using pig local
change some config values
use pig distributed.

As long getting started with pig is as easy as possible we can grow our user 
basis fast == more contributors == getting things stabile sooner.

> On the one hand side Pig uses commons logging - what makes sense. On the 
> other hand side the Pig Main class configure Log4j in the code. This 
> introduce a log4j must have dependency. 
> I suggest to only use a log4j configuration file to configure log4j and

> Any thoughts?
