A: Download 'em yourself.

Yes, it is that bad.

> Q: excalibur-component/jars/excalibur-testcase-1.2.jar

A: From excalibur-component.

You compile excalibur-component. Then you make a copy of the jar,
and remove the excalibur.component classes from the first copy and
the excalibur.testcase classes from the second. Then you rename
the first excalibur-testcase and the second excalibur-component.

Yes, it is that bad.

This is caused by the fact that maven has "one project -> one jar".

If we break out testcase to a separate project you get circular
deps between component and testcase.

Yes, it is that bad.

I'm up for a "reduction of jars"-spree shortly after the release.
