[cas-dev] CAS Client Dependencies on CAS Core

[Marvin S. Addison]

In browsing the CAS client source, it was clear that very little of the
CAS core library, which is distributed with the client, is used by the
client.  The 3.1-m1 client depends on the following classes:

org.jasig.cas.authentication.principal.Principal
org.jasig.cas.authentication.principal.SimplePrincipal
org.jasig.cas.authentication.principal.Service
org.jasig.cas.authentication.principal.SimpleService
org.jasig.cas.authentication.principal.AttributePrincipal
org.jasig.cas.authentication.principal.SimpleAttributePrincipal

Since everything in the client depends solely on classes in the
principal package, it seems straightforward to separate this out into a
separate target, e.g. cas-common.jar.  Thoughts?
