Facilitate Pulsar shell distribution

[Nicolò Boschi <bo...@gmail.com>]

Hi folks,

Now that Pulsar 2.11.0 has been released I'd like to discuss possible
improvements for Pulsar shell's user experience.

Now you either download the tarball or use a docker image, we can improve
it.

I've opened an issue with some ideas:
https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/19272
Please share your thoughts

Thanks,
Nicolò

As written on the GH issue we already have some experience with
packing pulsar-shell for homebrew

One open point is how to coordinate it with the Apache downloads framework.

Apache artifacts should be hosted / downloaded from downloads.apache.org
so we have to add some tricks/redirections on the pulsar.apache.org
website in order to make it work properly

We will also have to update the release procedure

Hi Nicolò,

Thanks for driving this topic! I think it is a really good idea to improve
the distribution.
I had a read through the GH issue and I agree, that having the shell
available through homebrew would be nice.

Best,
Alexander
