Leo,

I don't think there is enough merit to a copy/symlink solution, on the 
basis that it is only a move not a real rationalisation.

We will be left with some comps using ...

   org.apache.avalon.excalibur.*
   org.apache.excalibur.*
   org.apache.avalon.cornerstone.*

... packaging.

Seems like we move depots forever......
