Your proposal makes sense but the problem is that we will not be able to release (14.12, 15.12 etc...) until we have removed all the jars from the distribution, and implementing this in the branches will require some layout changes that will bring instability: the releases will be delayed regardless and if we want to implement two different mechanisms for downloading the jars for 14.12 vs the trunk and 16.x etc... than the codebases will become rather different and more difficult to maintain; and the extra effort will have to be backed up by the interested users. We have to consider these aspects and do a reality check on resources before moving in any direction. Jacopo
