Table
shows some of the JARs provided by Jtrix.org.
There are a couple of things of particular interest.
First, jtrix.jar is guaranteed to be available on any node
on which a netlet runs. That means when a netlet's descriptor lists
what JARs it needs it can omit mentioning jtrix.jar--it will
already be there for it.
Second, JARs such as hospitality_facet.jar and nodality_facet.jar
often crop up, and they contain the just the facets that a service
offers. They are very useful to compile and run against because they
are small and leave the actual implementation to the services themselves.
