IOW it didn't have the right dependencies which were instead specified in the container integration pom.xml files. Of course this caused the trunk and 5_x branch only to fail, but I fixed that. The whole "exclusion game" in the stacks' testsuite pom.xml is not required anymore, there're few dependencies still specified there and they're quite straightforward. | Thanks for the hotfix Alessio, but it didn't solve the problem I'm discussing here. It just hotfixed the result of the problem. I'd like to fix the reason of all these problems instead. I'll explain this argument in next post following this one.

IOW my point of view is that either we use this tool (maven) completely or we don't use it (which currently is not an option given the direction taken 1 year ago by the whole AS development). | Basing the tests on maven dependencies was the most natural solution when the mavenization took place, what would you suggest instead of that? I don't like that much the idea of specifying the surefire additionalClasspath with a list of jar from the curent AS... any other idea?
