I don't think that maven exclusion is significant in this case, because cxf libs are packed inside connector jar and aren't under maven control. Potentially the same problem can occur with the other connectors: csvdir, db.table and ldap. >From my perspective the best solution is fix the connectors google projects. >As quick and dirty solution we can remove jars from connector lib folder. Alternative classloading mechanism will very probably cause problems in OSGi environment, therefore I see redesign of connectors not avoidable in the future.
