One Jar To Rule Them All
Currently we ship lots of jars. Despite being somewhat confusing, this
can be a really good thing because it allows developers to pick and
choose subsets of functions/features they wish to ship. It does,
however, make it more difficult when you really do want everything.
Therefore... I'm thinking about updating the build to produce a single
all-inclusive jar in addition to the individual jars we currently have.
Any objections?

I recently entered a JIRA (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ABDERA-115)
around this issue.

The uber+modular strategy works well for Spring; it makes it easier on
those deploying servers, while still supporting (as much as possible)
a "slim" profile for (e.g.) mobile clients.
Which is a long-winded way of saying +1 =)

I think this is a good idea. I've been meaning to do this as part of the
Maven distribution I started on (locally).
In the distribution - do we want to have both the uber jar and the
module jars?
