Comment (by iwakeh):

 Oh, I wasn't aware of metrics-lib not including the dependencies inthe
 release jar.

 As with the other releases a metrics-lib release jar should contain all of
 its dependencies.
 We should provide gson with the release jar of metrics-lib, and thus, hide
 the internal choice of implementation.
 (Onionoo could then even get rid of that dependency as metrics-lib comes
 with gson.)  But, I think the better solution will be the metrics-tools
 lib that wraps any JSON-protocol implementation.

 Can that be changed with this release, i.e. include dependencies?  Then it
 could even go up 1.5.0 I think.
