Create a uber-jar for the JBoss JavaEE APIs
-------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBEE-73
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBEE-73
             Project: JBoss JavaEE APIs
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: javaee_6.0_spec
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0.Final-javaee_6.0
            Reporter: Aslak Knutsen

My Windows users are having problems.. 

Windows has a limitation on how long the ClassPath can be, when you start to include libraries like, jbossas-client(249 deps) and jboss-javaee-6.0 (x) windows refuse to execute the java process.

Would it be possible to release a uber-jar v. of the jboss-javaee-6.0 pom? Basically merge it into one artifact. Most users don't care about the individual specs, they use EE. And as long as the pom is there as well, they have both options.

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.jboss.spec</groupId>
   <artifactId>jboss-javaee-6.0-all</artifactId> <-- using a different artifact id is probably easier to setup -->
   <version>1.0.0.Final</version>
   <type>jar</type> <-- a single jar -->
</dependency>
