let's see it from the practical side. Commons RNG is supposed to stay stable 
as long as possible. Commons RNG Tools might have a much faster turn to 
break APIs. If you put both together, you'll have either to manage the 
submodules like individual components with own GAV (and where's the benefit 
then apart from our unprepared tooling of such an scenario?) or you have to 
change the package name of Commons RNG quite more often then necessary, just 
because you restructure something in the RNG tools that is incaompatible 
(not very good for users of RNG).

Therefore I'm with Gilles here and would simply say: Let's try it with two 
independent components and time will tell if it was a good choice or not.

Cheers,
Jörg
