> The SPI implemented in  WHIRR-47 makes it difficult to generate a executable JAR (for a CLI in WHIRR-33) since the whirr.properties files clobber each other. By implementing an SPI described in http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/guide/jar/jar.html#Service%20Provider (or http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/sound/programmer_guide/chapter13.html) we can use the Maven Shade plugin to produce an executable JAR which avoids this problem (see http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/examples/resource-transformers.html).
