Although this is a lot of maintenance work, this gives to full control what JARs beeing used in your Maven projects. -Stefan > Thanks. > > Scott > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
