David Jencks closed GERONIMO-4013.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

I don't think there's any fundamental work left on this.  Remaining problems if any can be new jiras.

> Right now the car-maven-plugin ignores maven transitive dependencies.  One reason for this is that our build is not using our plugins as the "classloader source" of the maven dependencies that are in the plugin poms.  If we restructured our build so that the pom dependency graph matched the geronimo classloader graph then perhaps we could let the car-maven-plugin follow transitive dependencies, thus making our view of dependencies pretty much the same as maven's.
> This may show up many other problems, such as too many badly scoped dependencies in all sorts of projects we use.
> One first step is to try out the car-maven-plugin with a flag for following transitive dependencies.  As long as it is false we ought to get pretty much the previous behavior.
> A first use could be for the new gshell plugins so they don't have to restate all the transitive dependencies.  This may show up scope problems as well.
