It can't, as with your approach we're only "adding" stuff and not 
removing anything (we unzip the new module structure over the existing 
one). It can happen (and it has happened from time to time) that we stop 
using a given module in a new release, or we refactor the module 
structure, or stuff like that. Some of the scenario can be dealt with by 
simply dropping a dependency as you write above (and forgetting a dead 
module on the server), some others can't.

In any case, the set of files to maintain for deploy/undeploy is now 
down to 1 ant xml file, the usual assembly plugin xml file and a single 
line conf file, so not that much. Btw, by looking at your branch I 
figured out we could possibly slim down the xml file a bit more, as 
currently the wfly8 and wfly9 structure is pretty much the same, so we 
can avoid some duplication.

Cheers
