You can do that with the Gump descriptors, I have started with many of the
turbine projects. I also have a little tool, based on the ant <get> task,
that will read a dependency list (that I originally created with the gump
descriptors, but honestly lately I've been updating it by hand) and download
the jars from a repository for your users. The tool obeys timestamps and
will work through proxies.
