Discuss: Move common-utilities to api

[Christian Schneider <ch...@die-schneider.net>]

Hi all,

I propose we move the common-utilities project to the cxf api.
The API depends on this project and basically all other prohects in cxf 
depend on the API. So I think it makes no real sense to split these into 
two projects. Additionally we should try to move as many of the 
common-utilities classes in core to make the API smaller.

I'm +0.5 to this.   It's definitely something I've been wanting to do and it 
really does make a lot of sense.  The ONLY reason I've been a bit hesitant is 
that it will make back porting any fixes to common classes to 2.5.x  a bit 
harder as the automated merge things won't really work well.   However, the 
good news is that the stuff in  common has been quite stable lately so there 
aren't a lot of them.    Anyway, I say "go ahead".   :-)
