Patrick,

Why is there a binary download available, if (hopefully most) users build their apps with maven and
dependencies are obtained automatically?

I guess it's a comfort for those not able to use Maven for some reason. I think of it as a transitional thing.

There are two reasons: Not everybody wants to use Maven/Ivy/MavenAntTasks. Since we got several complaints, we've started to provide traditional release artifacts.

And second, the release artifacts also contain the related documentation and Javadocs.
