Perhaps in view that jar layouts may change further, there might be an

Moving the existing deprecated jars (jini-core.jar, jini-ext.jar,
sdm-dl.jar, sun-util.jar) could break existing scripts/etc that
reference them, so if the desire is for AR1 to maintain maximum
compatibility, it would seem preferable to leave them where they are.
Your call, but my thoughts are that there will already be some changes involved
in testing and integrating AR1, for many. So, having to change some referred to
directory structures, etc, may not be a big impact overall.
I still use jini-core, jini-ext and sun-util myself. I copy these files out of
the distribution into a secondary, versioned structure (because I have made many
edits on my copy of the 2.1 source tree). The source of those jars is
abstracted by this fact.
