Question about jar files for building Ant

I¹ve been working on building Ant, and there are a bunch of jar files
required that are difficult if not impossible to find if you want to build
all the optional tasks.  Is there someplace where the whole magila is kept
for the central build where others could get to the right jar files and
versions?

Thanks and have fun! - Bob

I know what you mean.

Many of the jars are not redistributable by us (and I doubt that IBM
would allow any Maven like repo to distribute VAJ ;-).

We try to keep the locations current in the required libraries list on
the manual, but some things have simply disappeared - XSL:P is such a
case, you cannot even get it from CVS anymore, or so it seems.

EJB - I had a problem compiling parts of the Weblogic EJB tasks when I
tried it the last time, no version of EJB downloads available from Sun
seemed to contain some required classes (some deployment package
IIRC).  I'm ready to assume they are Weblogic specific.

No, but I do have it installed - is there a project definition available for
Ant?

The problems for me are the ejb related jars and the xslp jar file - any
URLs where I can click-through and get those please?

Thanks and have fun! - Bob

No, some of the classes / jars can only be obtained after clicking 
licensing agreements.

I've managed to acquire all the required jars with a little googeling 
and a little patience (for those 100+ MB downloads)
