Interesting. You mean a stripped down version, right? > Personally, I don't like to have to include the extra baggage for Spring, > for example, unless truly needed. Jackrabbit is only a compile time dependency, unless you use it for persistency. Strictly speaking, Spring is optional both at compile- and run-time, if you remove package org.apache.vysper.spring. It just enables easy configuration without the need to recompile. Removing both reduces the binary dist from 20M to 8.7M.

Great, there you go. Don't wait... Bernd
