that happens mainly because there was no tool supporting transitive

I mean that those are the ones you need to get all classes but the
probabilities of using everything from spring are remote, give it a
try, I'm sure that you don't need more than one, unless you make a big
jar with things nobody will use at the same time, which is what
transitive deps try to avoid. (eg. spring hibernate depending on
hibernate2 and 3).
