What would you remove? How could it be simpler? I don't mean how could it be less verbose, but how could you describe those various project attributes in a way that wouldn't lead you to another markup language with the same data?

I am getting rid of all Google api jars. Google has a well documented REST API for OAuth 2.0 and drive ; I am refactoring my code to only use standard commons http client jars along with java JSON (e.g. jackson )jars and invoke standard REST api.

Is there a public repo where I could follow your progress? My interest is piqued.

Thats a great idea. I haven't set up my github profile yet -- this may very well be the project to start with.
