Thanks, will do that, and hope for an eventual package redesign in jackrabbit :-)

> I need to replace the UserManager impl in jackrabbit to allow an external authentication provider outside of the JCR repo. I can make it work for authentication with the AUthenticationHandler and LoginModulePlugin interfaces provided through sling, but must override the UserManager because my usecase does not allow the users to exist in the repository. 
>  The current bundle exports the org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.principal package, but the UserManagerImpl is in the org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.user package and I also need authentication which is in the org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.authentication package. Any reason you cannot/don't want to export these packages. It would be helpful as they are needed to use jackrabbits extension model.
> Simply adding the following to the Export-Package section of the jackrabbit-server pom.xml allows my case to work:
>                                             org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.*;version=2.0.0,
>                                             org.apache.jackrabbit.core.*;version=2.0.0
> Thanks!
