> m2/core/boot is what is in the java classpath (ie, just classworlds,
> which constructs classloaders for the rest of the system)
> the top level classloader contains plexus container and plexus utils
> (see m2/core), and also has access to classworlds
> the next classloader has the libraries in m2/lib (a bug in beta 1
> incorporated commons-logging and -lang, sorry about that!) In general
> these are just maven libraries. We hope to further separate these in
> future to just be maven apis.
> after that, each plugin has its own classloader, including its
> dependencies, itself, and the libraries above. It *does not* contain
> the project dependencies like in m1, but instead has access to a list
> of JAR files in case they are needed.
> In addition, a project can list "extensions". These are loaded into
> the same place as m2/lib and so available to the maven core and all
> plugins for the currnet project and subsequent projects (in future, we
> plan to remove it from subsequent projects).
