Apache Pinot

1. Correct, you don’t have to do a Maven install if you download &amp; untar the distribution.
2. You could be able to `cd &lt;installation dir&gt;` and then run `bin/quick-start-bash.sh` to get a cluster running for batch.

I'm on windows: when I `./quick-start-batch`in powershell I can see gitbash opens briefly then closes and there is no message in the terminal. When I git-bash-here and try that terminal in the pinot installation directory it doesn't recognize the `bin/quick-start-bash.sh` and it says `Could not find or load main class org.apache.pinot.tools.Quickstart`

for some reason when I download the 0.1.0 release instead of the 0.8.0 release the commands will execute in bash like I'd expect

Sorry, no experience on Windows with powershell

Thanks. I think the issue is that all the class files are in the .jar file in /lib but for some reason its not recognizing that. back to googling. thanks
