       Body:
Not all the size optimizations are equally effective. The attached list contains 
information about sizes of external libraries used as dependencies.

The following optimizations are most effective:

1. Moving all to the same version of ant saves ~2.1M
2. Moving castor and ashkelon to the same version of castor saves ~1.5M
3. Moving all to the same version of dom4j saves ~0.9M
4. Moving all to the same version of log4j saves ~0.9M
5. Moving all to the same version of xalan saves ~0.9M
6. Moving all to the same version of xerces saves ~3.6M

Other optimizations all together saves ~1.8M

    Summary: Synchronise the various dependency versions across core + maven plugins

Description:
We currently have plugins that depend on a variety of different versions of dom4j, 
xerces etc.  At least 3 different versions of xerces are required to support maven.  

At 2M / download this is clearly wasteful and undesirable.

I propose that we synchronise these versions.  It is unlikely that it will cause any 
damage and is just an artifact of progress / different committers
