Sean Owen resolved MAHOUT-870.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

"Job" is the Hadoop terminology. Though Job = one MapReduce. I imagine it's still the right-er convention. But as this is minor, nobody's acted on it, the names are in common use now by third parties, and there are far bigger differences among the implementations, I suggest there's not much point changing this.

> Some things are Drivers, some are Jobs, but they all do the same thing.  Since we often use these as the main interface into our stuff, let's make it easier for people to find things by being consistent w/ our naming.
> My vote is Driver.
