I never said I would only check out just jboss.  I said I would package each
module individually.

Why can I not build the modules separately?  What is the hardship?

For instance, I see a separate JBossMQ release.  Why is this released
separately, if jboss is supposed to be built as one?

Why is the build system for jboss separate from jboss?

No, of course not.  But the build system in jboss-all that wraps everything
else is not the same as being able to build each module separately.
