Thomas Mortagne commented on VELOCITY-894:
------------------------------------------

"vital" is a bit strong as well as "pure nonsense" :) It's indeed the first 
time I encounter a JAR dependency without the debug symbol (and XWiki have 
quite a few dependencies :)) so I was very surprised.

I think the logic is more the opposite, I really doubt this optimization bring 
much value in practice and having the debug symbol make debugging a lot easier.

bq. someone willing to have debug information can still build binaries with it

Yes I could checkout the tag, modify the pom and hope that all will build fine 
with my version of Maven and that I will get the exact same thing but with 
debug symbol but I would really prefer not to ;)

> As far as I can see the JAR published on velocity-engine-core-2.0.java 
> published on Maven central has been built without the debug information. 
> Makes is quite a pain to understand what happen exactly when you have 
> something to debug.
