I wrote a build task to identify all duplicate jar files within the current
suite.  I identified many jar files that had the same checksum.  Most of them
existed both in util and core.  I moved a single copy of the jar file to
common/lib/jar and removed them from core and util.  This has significantly
reduced the number and size of jars within kepler.  

The ant task can be run with 'ant analyze-jars'.  It creates two log files. 
One analyzes the jars by filename and the other analyzes them by checksum.  The
filename analyzer is still finding some duplicates that are not the same file,
but probably contain much of the same content.  I'm going to leave these alone
for now until I'm sure my changes today haven't messed anything up.
