[kepler-dev] java cog jar files duplication .....

[jagan]

Hi Dan,

It won't interfere or pollute with kepler's classpath only thing is 
there would be number duplication of jar files in cvs repository.
I am planning to put cog and its dependent third party jar files in 
$KEPLER/cog directory, unless we specify explicitly these
jars won't appear in kepler classpath.

with regards,

Jagan Kommineni
