"Everything that is reusable should be in > Commons". Not > a very practical goal, is it? It'd make SourceForge a lot smaller... Not everything that is reusable of course. But maybe everything that is ment to be used in almost any class/component/... I call these packages usually horizontal packages. If you decide to use them for an existing project you would have to rewrite it almost completely. If such a horizontal package is big enough to be an own project it should do so (e.g. log4j) and these projects would like to depend only on the "commons" project. More vertical packages that can be used reasonably in a little part of a project would sit on top of the horizontal ones. So it would give clear hierarchy and things could be easier to find.
