Hi Paul:

Thanks for the feedback. Some follow-up questions/comments:

1. Is there a script (or Maven plugin) that can keep version numbering
of modules in sync? If not, how are you keeping them synchronized?

2. I'm currently a bit cautious about extending dependencies for the
core OAuth signature library into any other part of Jersey, namely
because right now it's self-contained, with only dependency being on
Java SE. Thoughts?

Paul
