David Illsley commented on AXIS2-3766:
--------------------------------------
Alex, we use the geronimo jars at least in part because they are of known
provenance and license. If you have a specific problem with any of them, please
raise a specific JIRA.
Cheers,
David

> Key: AXIS2-3766
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-3766
> Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.3
> Reporter: Alex Savitsky
> Priority: Minor
>
> Many of the dependencies declared in axis2-parent (these apply to all child
> POMs, including kernel and, in my case, adb) are not required by the main
> Axis runtime, only being used for certain optional features, or are even
> questionable to include in the runtime at all (e.g., junit). For example,
> here's how my axis POM dependency looks like for a simple RPC client code:
> <dependency>
> <groupId>org.apache.axis2</groupId>
> <artifactId>axis2-adb</artifactId>
> <version>1.3</version>
> <exclusions>

> </exclusion>
> </exclusions>
> </dependency>
> That's 16 (!) exclusions. Server code doesn't fare any better, with 14
> exclusions (minus neethi and fileupload). Something needs to be done about
> this (maybe move some of these from axis2-parent down to individual POMs).
