I think that we should leave this out altogether. Anyone who wants to use commons logging will presumably have commons logging. > - commons-pool-1.3.jar (used only in > TCPRemoteCommitProvider for distributed data caching) We should keep this, since it is required for one of our built-in options, although it's unfortunate to have the extra dependency for just one bit of code. > - geronimo-jms_1.1_spec-1.0.1.jar (used only in > JMSRemoteCommitProvider for distributed data caching) We should leave this out, since anyone who uses the JMS RCP will need to have a JMS server, and will therefore presumably have JMS jars. > - derby-10.2.2.0.jar (provided only as a convenience for > getting started with the examples quickly) I think that we should keep this. > My question: should we differentiate between the required > libraries and the optional ones (perhaps by putting them in > an /optional/ directory or something)?

I think that we should make the changes I outlined above, and we should not create an /optional/ for other things. -Patrick -- Patrick Linskey BEA Systems, Inc. _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.
