It's the LGPL thing.. I once had it as part of CVS and I and Neeme Praks had to remove if due to the licensing. I actually have been reworking it to use the shared library dependencies on an all Ant basis to keep things in line with the rest of the components.
I could put it online in the wiki, however there are a couple projects that depend on it as a jar.. I've also recently recieved some modifications that will extend it to handle the various both deprecated and future containers in Avalon land much better.. Right now, there is some icky code to deal with both the *old* containers, as well as future containers. This will kick up the number of classes slightly.
