From Greg in regarding 0.9.10-incubating:

... I’m not sure what other projects do, but personally I’m not comfortable with distributing libraries in the source distribution.  In fact, I’m not a fan of having them in source control.  Would it be possible to assemble them into the binary at build time?  I’m pretty sure there are artifacts in Maven Central for Angular and JQuery - certainly something like Bower should be an option if not?

(See [the original email in the VOTE thread|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-guacamole-dev/201611.mbox/%3C4D7E4108-D0D5-41A7-8DF7-D91CB8406883%40stratuscom.com%3E])

We, also, are not fans. It looks like this can be resolved by migrating to [Webjars|http://www.webjars.org/]. This has the secondary effect of lessening the burden of updating the source LICENSE file (though the LICENSE file of build artifacts still needs to be updated).
