That's right:
Do the following in a temp directory:
jar xvf mm.mysql-2.0.10-you-must-unjar-me.jar
This will create a directory called mm.mysql-2.0.10. Inside that, you'll
find a mm.mysql-2.0.10.jar file, which is what you need to put in your
classpath (you can move that file wherever you like it).
However, I recommend using version 2.0.8 for now, if you use BLOBs a lot -
2.0.10 has a subtle BLOB reading bug that causes queries to throw
IOExceptions with certain values.
You can get all the old back-versions from
