Hi,

I submitted a PR to the homebrew <http://brew.sh/> project (Mac=E2=80=99s =
unofficial package manager) to add a formula for installing Flink 1.0.2.=20=

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/968 =
<https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/968>

This will simplify installation on Mac.  Here=E2=80=99s the typical =
flow:

$ brew info apache-flink
apache-flink: stable 1.0.2, HEAD
Scalable batch and stream data processing
https://flink.apache.org/
Not installed

$ flink --version
Version: 1.0.2, Commit ID: d39af15

I made the somewhat arbitrary choice to use Scala 2.10 and Hadoop 2.6 =
for consistency with the apache-spark formula.   In future the formula =
may be parameterized to allow the user to decide.

I chose to add only the `flink`, `pyflink2.sh`, and `pyflink3.sh` =
commands to the system path.  I felt that the names of the other bin =
scripts are too vague (`start-local.sh`, etc) to be on the system path.  =
  I considered `flink-daemon` but was unsure it is a documented tool.

There=E2=80=99s still a chance to change the PR before it is merged.   =
Of course we can change it further with 1.0.3.

Enjoy,
Eron Wright=
