> The distribution build process is currently very messy:
> - it is based on overly complex assembly files
> - the layout of the distribution packages is not ideal
> - some of the documentation is not obviously accessible (jmx, xsd)
> - since the javadoc plugin is configured to use aggregate builds, it cannot be run without building the entire tree
> The solution:
> - move the distribution logic to its own module
> - use ant instead of assembly descriptors to build the distribution packages
> - improve the layout, include the missing docs and remove the aging cruft
