Subject: OpenJPA all jar has transitive dependencies on openjpa-*.jar

Hi,

I'm not sure if my understanding is correct, but it seems that the 
openjpa all jar has direct dependencies on openjpa-* jar. Including the 
openjpa all jar in a project dependency would include the openjpa-* jar 
as transitive dependencies, which is maybe a little redundant? (I could 
do exclusions, but that would defeat the convenience of using the all 
jar :) ).

I would suggest including the openjpa-* dependencies as dependencies of 
the antrun plugin, so it could extract them, and including the 
geronimo-jpa, jta, serf, etc dependencies as the direct dependencies of 
the all jar. I could raise a jira and attach a patch if you guys think 
its worth doing. :)

Thanks!

Regards,
Adrian Co
