The serial profile has been added as we don't want users to get a bin

rxtx lib with the whole dist.
Do you think we should get rid of the serial profile completely, assuming we
don't include the rxtx lib?
As you say, including the serial transport in our dist is probably not
very useful for our users. How about keeping it as a module (and
profile) but include it in the dist? Users that want the serial
support will have to build from source, using the profile, which is
probably what we want (i.e. the user gets to make an active choice).

Shouldn't we consider the download of the rxtx.jar as an active choice
already ? (just wondering)
