--------------------------------------------------------------

In a separate development setup/testbed I now have a completed, distributed setup for downloading/integrating the artifacts (jars) OFBiz is depending on.

This setup works in a similar way as the build process, meaning accessing the build file of each component, determining if there are artifact dependencies and download these and place them in the correct place in the component.

> Currently Apache Ivy is used to facilitate downloads of specific external jar files for Activemq, mySQL, postgreSQL configuration and Sonar and Cobertura functions.
> However, Apache Ivy can also be for easier management of the standard jars OFBiz is dependent on, in
> - various framework areas
> - various base and special purpose applications/components.
> Applying more ivy functionality will decrease the load on commiters regarding maintenance of  (and upgrading) external jars used  and required licence information.
