Hi Tim, I'm afraid I've taken all alone the decision to remove these files as they appeared useless to me. I feel really sorry about that. I revert back these changes on the 2.3 and master branches: that is to say the JEE edition provides these connectors. However, I wonder if we have to register these connectors by default, what is your thinking about that?
And unfortunately, I won't be able to package a 2.3.1 release soon, I can achieve this on the 29th of December.
