> This is an idea on improving inclusion of open source code referenced by java projects. Currently when we use a java build system (such as maven or gradle), the build system downloads the jar files referenced by a java project. What I am proposing here is a replacement for that:
> Find out all the classes referenced by the classes in a java project (say, project A).
> Download the source code for these dependencies recursively and include the downloaded source code in the source tree of project A.
> Remove the dependency(ies) from project build configuration file (e.g. pom.xml) and build the project.
> The resulting jar file would be smaller in size than if the full jar for the dependency is included as is.
