Mainly, I would be in favor of "also" storing the dependencies of the
*head* trunk revision somewhere on the web site or ftp site, for
practical reasons (simplifying the life of contributors to the trunk).
Yet, as this is an old and settled subject, I won't push the discussion
forward.
It's an issue of re-distribution. The ASF doesn't redistribute other
people's code except as parts of a full product distribution.
I'll simply cast a modest retroactive "-1 vote" on this issue, for what
it's worth.
What are you voting against, exactly?
I don't grok why this is a problem. You'll download the jars *once*
(until a version changes), and with the exception of the MSVC runtime
dll, it's automated for you.
[Or a +1 vote on providing the dependencies of head trunk
revision in a single location, somewhere outside of the repository] ;-)
Cheers,
Etienne
