If this is "the Maven way" then I respectfully disagree. It's certain not "the Apache way." I can't think of many ASF projects that ship the transitive dependencies in their nightly or release builds. Its also a waste of bandwidth IMO. Maven is for managing your dependencies but nothing about Maven requires that you include the depedencies in your final product. > Bernd Sean
