Description

I appreciate all the work that has been done on getting Springs dependencies optional. However, I still have a global parent POM defining dependencyManagement dependencies for my spring jars that contain the following exclusions. I may be wrong on a couple, but I think most of them should be optional, as I've had no problems excluding them.

For spring-aop, I exclude aopalliance:aopalliance, and oro:oro
For spring-web, I exclude javax.servlet:jsp-api, javax.servlet:jstl, and taglibs:standard
For spring-dao, I exclude javax.transaction:jta
For spring-orm, I exclude org.springframework:spring-webmvc
