Hi,

the same question arrised to me, as I find the names also no so self
explaining


ivy-core-2.0.0-alpha-1-incubating.jar  -->  The Ivy core system
ivy-2.0.0-alpha-1-incubating.jar  --> The Ivy core system + The Ant tasks

So when using in combination with Ant the ivy-2*.jar is enough.


Indeed, we plan to review the packaging before 2.0 final. The current
packaging is mainly historical, Ivy was previously packaged as only one jar
(ivy-[version].jar). Then the need for a jar without the Ant tasks raised
for IvyDE, and we created the "core", which isn't really what we call the
core in development. In development the core is what can be built without
dependencies, and our build script first builds the core, then use the
freshly built core to resolve Ivy optional dependencies, and then build the
parts of Ivy depending on these optional dependencies. So we may change the
artifact names and packaging in coming versions.
