Jagan,

We are in the process of trying to reduce the central jars stored in
Kepler because it is such a huge mess.  The KAR file format now allows
you to include jar files required by an actor in a .kar file for that
actor and list it in the actor's dependencies.  I think there are still
a few issues to work out about how to handle the build with the KAR
system, but the basic infrastructure should work.  So I would recommend
that you work with Chad to get your Griddles actors built as a .kar with
their own specific jar dependencies.

Over the next short while I will be pushing for us to clean out the jar
files from the central kepler lib dir and start including there only
things that are part of the core kepler framework.  Actor-specific
dependencies would be resolved via the KAR system.

Your thoughts on this approach would be appareciated.
