Other than the Maven profiles or building from some point down inside the project hierarchy there isn't anything, but i wonder if we should do something. In 1.x we always build/test everything and that means the build takes ages especially the first time when all the dependencies need to be downloaded, and this is off putting for new developers. 2.x isn't so bad yet but it is starting to take longer as we're add more extensions. Early on in 2.x we did talk about doing something about this, perhaps splitting things so some of the extensions are optional and not built and tested as part of the main core build. The hard bit would be coming up with a list of what is optional that we all agree with, should we try to do that? ...ant
