Thanks for the tip about putting the modules all in one file. I know next to
nothing about Maven as well. Actually new to the whole dependency management
thing. I have always thought it was a solution looking for a problem.
However, figured I would test it out on a project and see for myself.

I like the flexibility of Ivy to copy the jars to a lib directory and still
being able to commit them to source control.
