How does everyone feel about changing from the uber-spring jar (2M)
to the spring module jars? Here is a sizing chart:
spring-beans-2.0.5.jar 379K
spring-context-2.0.5.jar 156K
----
531K
spring-web-2.0.5.jar 148K # optional for web context
spring-jmx-2.0.5.jar 85K # optional xbean-server
With full spring at 2M this is a pretty big savings. This will also
help to keep the modules free of using other stuff from spring.
On the other hand, maven and uber jars don't always get along. If
anther project imports xbean-spring, they will either need to use the
spring module jars, or exclude them transitively from the xbean-
spring. Alternatively, we could mark them as provided, and then the
importing project will need to explicitly import spring in which ever
form they like.
I'd prefer we go with the spring-module approach, but mark all the
spring jars as provided. This make it easier for users to upgrade to
newer spring releases (no exclude/reinclude).

BTW, I did test this actually works :)
