I've always found it interesting there is a commons-beanutils and common-beanutils-core deliverable. The name doesn't suggest what makes the first one different. Usually the core artifact is foundational (like tapestry-core or struts-core). If it is an API package, I would add api to the end

If I understood Henri correctly, his proposal is to distribute one artifact with optional collection dependencies. True? If so, I am for it. I don't see any technical advantage in creating collection-free or collection-only jars. On 7/14/07, Niall Pemberton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 7/14/07,
