Few points/questions/hints for M2:

1) running it under windows says:
"Errore: Limitare l'accesso in lettura al file password: ../conf/jmx.password"
(Trans: error: you have to limit read access to password file:
../conf/jmx.password). It's not clear what I have to do to limit this
access and whom to limit access to.

2) in a future version I'd like to see some dependency removed from
the binary release (e.g: pdfbox-1.0.0.jar is 4.6MB and I believe it's
not really used but only transitively inherited by jackrabbit).

3) we now have a lot of implementations for each api. Even to me (long
time james user/developer) it's now not obvious what are the default
or the preferred implementations and their status. Maybe we should
provide a small table indicating defaults and pro/cons of the various
implementations when it's not obvious.
It's not clear what is the best setup for users that only needs a
small mail server with no database, or what is suggested to users that
wants to set up a cluster with no "file" state in the nodes, and
similar "standard" things.

4) in the source distribution we have the STATUS file: IMHO this
should be removed from there and from SVN. It was a failed experiment.

5) MIGRATE.txt is outdated. It's better to remove it that to have it
documenting a bad migration path.

6) In James 2.3 we had a README.txt with some docs, and with the
Crypto Notice. I guess at least Crypto Notice should be revamped.
