Summary by yanivi:
Currently the google-http-client jars are at the root of the zip file, and the
dependency jars are in the dependencies folder.
Instead, I propose a new structure which puts all of the binary jars in a
"libs" folder and all of the source jars are in the "libs-sources" folder. No
distinction between http base lib or the dependencies. This follows exactly
the structure of the jars in tasks-android-sample.
One motivation is that for Android applications, the package manager requires
the directory with all binary jars to be called "libs". Similarly, for HTTP
servlets to jars must go in the war/WEB-INF/lib folder. Normally source jars
aren't placed in this directory, so that's why I recommend also doing the same
for libs-sources.
Additionally, we should provide the classpath entries to use for the .classpath
file for Eclipse for the various platforms. It's just too much of a pain to
craft them manually, and often people forget the sourcepath which makes it more
difficult for debugging.
We should make the same changes in the projects that we own that depend on this
project (api, oauth, etc).
