Github user StephanEwen commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/593#issuecomment-146206122 Looks good to merge from my side. The only uncertainty remaining is whether we need the static factory methods on the ExecutionEnvironment. Adding these global classpaths seems a very specific case, in which we can probably expect people to manually create a RemoteEnvironment. That way we don't over load the ExecutionEnvironment with too many factory methods (we have a tendency to get API bloat).
