Ugh... well, I think there may be more problems... as I just started to notice that builds of car modules downloads the deployed version of the same module while building...

This is really maddening...

The more I hack around CAR problems, the more that I find that CAR's are just adding more and more extra unneeded complication to Geronimo. In fact I believe that CAR are the reason why the G build is so complicated... and convoluted.

At what point do we stop hacking around this and just toss CAR files out the window?

Any simplicity we get from CARs when loading them in the server is IMO completely negated by the complexity of the build required to produce them.

I'd really love to see CARs go away... and leave in there place plain xml files, which are easily editable and do not require and additional build processing to massage them.

But, until then... anyone know why the build of a CAR is trying to resolve itself as a dependency?

Thanks Jason for your "passion" for conducting such a painstaking
research and finally hunting it down. Much appreciated for such
followers like me.
