Yup, +1 to both of those. > Diggory: > Now, I'm starting to see headaches in all this. Its looking alot like a > premature optimization to me.

What's the big deal with using src/java or src/share? Commons projects are separate projects, and each project's developers can do what suits them. If we want to enforce a common look and feel, that's one thing (that I don't think is that important, but no biggie as long as it doesn't get in the way of more important things, like users downloading and building easily without extra dependencies). But to add this dependency on commons-build and raise the bar of required Maven expertise for release managers at least, and probably component developers as well, is not cool.
