-Required external libraries
----------------------------
-
-The following external Java libraries (JAR files) must be placed (or symlinked)
-here in the lib/ directory, unless specifically noted as optional.
-
-* The samskivert library:
-  http://samskivert.com/code/samskivert/
-
-* Apache Commons libraries: collections, digester and io
-  http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/
-
-* Megginson Technologies' XMLWriter 0.2 library:
-  http://www.megginson.com/Software/xml-writer-0.2.zip
-
-* Retroweaver libraries for creating 1.4 compatible versions:
-  http://retroweaver.sourceforge.net/
-
-* (Optional) jMonkeyEngine 3D scene graph toolkit built on LWJGL:
-  http://www.jmonkeyengine.com/
-
-Once the jar files are in place (regardless of what they are named), the build
-system will automatically include them in the compile-time classpath.
