plugin.jar

Per the Incubator PMC's request, we have removed plugin.jar from source control and are no longer including it in our distribution artifacts. You will now need to manually ensure that this library is available on your classpath. See the following for more information.

That's a good suggestion - I can make this change.

Understood - I should have elaborated a bit more on the reason for this change.

Please keep in mind that I am one who keenly likes being able to use
LiveConnect with Pivot.  But unless we can document the redistribution
right, which I do urge you to investigate, we can't distribute Sun's code.

Why not instrument the Ant script to check on this, and to emit instructions
if/as necessary?  As I said, we had to do the same for JavaMail and JAF at
one point with JAMES.
