[hibernate-dev] Hibernate 4 and the hibernate3.jar file in release bundle

[Sanne Grinovero]

People loving uber-jars are (in my experience) those who don't have an
automated dependency management system,
so having special maven artifacts won't help them.
It could be useful to document what modules are needed for each use
case by providing short descriptions for each jar.
