Hi,

A possible option would be to pre tick and/or remove the checkbox in the 
installer?

Why do we need a prompt? We're not downloading the source, just the jar right?

This has been discussed and seems reasonably clear,  but the JIRA is not marked 
as closed. [1]

> And yet another option is to download all of these jars in the install.

We currently are as we are downloading the binary and they are contained in 
that, but I assume you mean removing them from the binary and downloading them 
separately via the installer script? In that case how would we handler older 
versions of the SDK?

Given we already have a large number of download failures I'm not sure that's 
the best option.

The Velocity NOTICE file in the jar doesn't look like the original/right one 
and may of been incorrectly replaced.

My understanding is that its not dual licensed (ie select the license you 
want), but different parts of the code are licensed under different licenses. 
The W3C license is compatible with Apache and I assume you treat it like 
MIT/BSD license ie just add it to LICENSE.

Thanks,
