I have not investigated how this might be done although I suspect something could be done using classpath entries in jar's themselves; Jenkins itself suffers from the same issue in that its packaged as a war file which bundles all of its dependencies. > For now, as a first step, it's fine to have the libs bundled, but > maybe in a longer term something should be done with it. I agree; I'm hoping that some of the Jenkins devs (maybe Kohsuke) may attend UDS in May so it might be something we can investigate in collaboration with upstream (I'd not particularly want to try and change the way this works without them).
