Look at the latest POM ES depends on Netty 3.9.1 all said and good...

But why is netty packaged within the Elasticsearch jar and not distributed  
as a regular jar in the lib folder?

Is ES maintaning it's own version of Netty or it is just to reduce the  
amount of jars distributed?

At one point Elasticsearch shaded several different libraries for various  
reasons, but thankfully this is no longer the case. From what I understand,  
the Jetty classes you are referring to are custom classes built for  
Elasticsearch that are not packaged with Jetty.

Cheers,
