+1 on all those counts, but do we:

- ship test srcs with the src distro?
- ship the GUI demo srcs with the src distro? (keep in mind it is a  
separate package in SVN, complete with it's own versioning.  It is  
currently in version 1.0, with a dependency on JBC 2.1.1.GA.)

I'm hoping to drop the old JBossCacheView demo since it bloats the  
core distro with beanshell and GUI dependencies.  Hence the separate  
package for the GUI demo.
