Didn't realize that Click actually includes checkstyle in the distro.
I am curious what runtime function it performs?

Couple of issues have come up with the jars we ship in our lib folder.
Checkstyle-all.jar is LGPL based, so will have to be removed from
the distribution.
Even though a taskdef in our build.xml is dependent on checkstyle,
the build still works without the jar. Ant simply prints a warning.
Was thinking of adding the jar to the get-deps target, however only
checkstyle.jar (the one without dependencies) is available from
maven repo's. Checkstyle itself depends on a further 5 dependencies,
so I'm not sure we should add that to the get-deps task.
We can enhance the checkstyle task to notify Click developers about
manually downloading and adding the checkstyle-all.jar to their
classpath when building Click.
Alternatively another ant target could be added get-checkstyle.
The other issue is with dev.jar which doesn't have a license but I
recall it was authored by Malcolm? Guess we can decompile the code
and release it under Apache2.0?
kind regards
