------------------------------------

Nitay can you describe how the build process now works with your changes?  How do we build only giraph and then build the contribs?

> Most Maven projects that have multiple modules (as we do with main / formats) have a top level pom.xml. This allows you avoid redundancy and also to build everything from top level all at once. I'm using a lot of the formats stuff, especially playing with hive / hcatalog and it's a pain having to constantly compile everything twice.
> So I propose we move all the main code under a subdir, say giraph/ or main/. Then add a pom.xml that both the giraph/ and the formats/ subdirs can point to.
> Note we will still build completely separate jars. If people want to just build giraph-main without formats they can do so directly from the subdirectory.
> Let me know if you guys +1 the idea and I'll whip it up.
