Yan: The one in \lib is the same as the one in \redist *except* that we added the dependency files to it to help the compiler. \redist is the directory which contains the stuff you are allowed to deploy when you want to use the whole jar, etc. BTW, it's really a good education to just open up JAR files and look at them.
