What dependencies are strictly necessary?

[Scott Battaglia]

Mike,

You could pare things down a bit by removing some jars but it won't make it
any more lightweight (other than taking up slightly less room on the hard
drive).

However, if you must remove some jars, you can try removing the following (I
can't guarantee what will work after these are removed):
* The AspectJ items if you aren't using the Inspektr tool
* Acegi and cas-client if you aren't using the Services Management tool (may
require  certain configuration to be removed)
* The XML and digital signature stuff if you aren't using  Google Accounts
support
* OpenSAML if you aren't using the SAML support

There may be more but I don't have the list handy.
