My understanding from Roy is that, if we ship Jackrabbit, we don't
need the JCR jar, as Jackrabbit provides its own impl. Does it still
work if you just remove the JCR jar? Or did I misunderstand something?
No, this is not correct. The jackrabbit-jar is only an implementation
of the JCR APIs. Rereading Roys mail:
"The JCR API, in contrast, will either already be present in the J2SE
engine (with or without an implementation) or must be downloaded and
installed by the user."
IMO for Cocoon this means that our users needs to get/have the jcr.jar
by themself, either donwloading it by hand from the SUN/Day site and
install it as an Java extension or other mechanism (i.e. global lib
dir of a target container) or use a scritp (read Maven) to get it.
Now, the only way I see ATM is to extend the Ant-script for the
repository block to download that jcr.jar from the Day site and put it
to the correct location for deployment/build (this is meant for the
branch).
Or add some mock classes in our base code. Se far, we have been doing it
for mail.jar and other jars that we don't distribute due legal reasons.

Antonio Gallardo.
