The reason for this not popping up earlier in the maven build is that the 
download-maven-plugin caches downloaded files locally in the maven local repo. 
Here there's a ".cache/download-maven-plugin" ... as soon as a resource is 
downloaded, the plugin caches that here and doesn't re-download it. So it makes 
the build safer, but unfortunately it prevents us from finding out this sort of 
thing earlier. Eventually I'll setup a dedicated build job just for checking 
this sort of thing.

Sort of.  If we've bundled a copy of a file in any of our releases and we
can't find a future home for that file (a place where future
development/bug fixing is going on), in most cases we can either just put
it in our repo or have a volunteer host it on their GitHub account.

I think I may have found a GitHub copy of svg.js at [3].  I will verify it
some day.

Thanks,
