Donald, One question/concern. Does this affect the packaging of OpenJPA[1] or is this only an additional build-time artifact? In other words, when I download the binary distribution will it contain a base jar without dependencies and/or a separate jar which includes dependencies? ie. Can a user still get the base OpenJPA jar without all the bundled dependencies? I'm assuming so, but though I'd verify.
