-----------------------------------------------------
Hello Florian,
there are several things to note:
The download mechanism: it was introduced because having external jars in the
source code is considered against Apache principles, which was noted in the
follow-up of the [July status
report|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201207.mbox/%3ccaofyjnzfburq1ite-u6nabrr6patsc+dz_jc6t3s31uepht...@mail.gmail.com%3E].
Keeping the jars in libs tests/libs will most probably be a blocker for IPMC.
The growing libs directory: I'm thinking we could avoid that problem by
directly download them from Central, except for sandler and
freshcookies-security, which are not available there.
maven ant tasks: to introduce cobertura and sonar support we needed some (L)GPL
jars, which we couldn't have in our SVN repository, hence the mechanism to
download them. I was thinking of downloading all dependencies via these tasks,
but as sandler and freshcookies-security are not published on central, so may
be we could just download the needed jars from central and get rid off these
tasks. Thoughts?

> As pointed out in the revision of the July 2012 incubation report, JSPWiki
> ships binary dependencies in the source archive, which is contrary to Apache

> As we are downloading some dependencies in current trunk, I would take the
