Yes Pete has a point--but only because of the rediculousness of taking my argument to
the
complete and utter extreme. I have a definite list of what Cocoon requires and
everytime
I try to get Pete to see that one jar for the Framework and those WELL TESTED
components
is good, then I get a flippant or glib response that is basically throwing any argument
I have out the window.
Let's not take my argument to the extreme. The natural separation of Cornerstone,
Pheonix,
and Avalon Framework (and LogKit) is both acceptable and good. My argument is to not
take
the extreme approach in the other direction and have 20 jars where 3 or 4 are
warranted.

That is a packaging issue for Pheonix, and might help there. But keep in mind that
Cocoon
attempted that approach, and people got confused over using the Jar as an archive vs.
using
it as an executable.
