to Maverick. I have developed a fairly large application under Maverick
and have found the maverick.xml file to have grow somewhat unwieldy. I

I'm interested in being able to specify a maverick.xml file that is located

That seems to cover the two requirements. Is there a better way to identify absolute URLs than checking for a :?

Hi Jeff,

Maverick is an elegant piece of work and it is a pleasure to be associated

The new feature of specifying an external-to-war mav.xml file works
great. My dream of separation of engine (war) and content is one step
closer to reality!! The strength of a war is that everything can be

I know this is a really dumb question, esp considering that I've been using
and relying on Maverick for over 1 1/2 years, but here goes anyway...
Maverick transforms my Velocity templates (the .vm files) and these are
displayed without any problem. What I want to do is, in one particular
SVG content was coming instead of html.

Hi --
I think upgrading the jdom library is a good idea -- keeping up-to-date
with libraries is a worthy goal. Velocity 1.4 has a dependency on the
older jdom as well. This means that us Mav/Velocity users must
simultaneously upgrade Velocity to an as of yet unreleased Velocity 1.5.

Hi Peter,
I had the same problem last summer and made two modifications to
Maverick. My app must be able to adjust to any charset based on
locale. I'm pasting in the changes I made below. If someone can
commit them to the maverick source that would be even
better!! Anyway, let me know how
is is because we're lazy
(and by "we" I mean "I"), and partly this is an experiment in
applying limited wiki concepts to source code.
Dan, want access?

I'm using 2.0 beta 1. When you're writing the doc for 2.0, the problems

I like your idea -- using Mav to process the correct html page: query or

I notice that there are a few methods in Maverick for attaching error
messages to fields, such as addError(). These are certainly very useful,
_although_ I am now realizing why you have (wisely) chosen to not include
them in the core distribution of maverick. It must be because the messages

I'm trying to integrate the dvsl feature into my existing maverick
app. I'm able to get it to build and process with out errors, but oddly
enough, I see the output page in either of two ways:
1. It might have, as
text, the correctly processed output. Also, the text doesn't include the
supported for the most "natural
transformations", it would just fit into the current design. If it seems
easy, can you point me to where in the source to focus for modifying?
Anyway, thanks again, I really am having a good time with Maverick.

Regarding the concern for too many changes or compatibility issues, I have

I'm not sure this is of particular interest, but since Resin was mentioned,
I thought I'd speak up. I just ported our app from Tomcat to Resin. There
were very few issues, and of those few, none were related to Maverick. It
was all fairly straightforward. It basically works the same as befo
