Hi Markus,

With respect to the Win32 installer, which parts of the Java code do you
feel should be included? I'm happy to include the main JDBC driver but
it seems a bit excessive to include the EJB files. As strk suggests,
perhaps it may be worth spinning the Java files out into a separate
project so we could point users to download the EJB JARs from the
PostGIS site if they require it?


Kind regards,

Mark.
