Erwin,

I get a permission denied on the web server :<.

Out of interest - I thought we had decided to keep Forrest for the web site part, at least for the moment? The overall XML Project is moving that way, so we would be moving in a different path. Not necessarily wrong, but I'd be hesitant to to move to something else just for the sake of it.

Also - I have some changes I have to upload sometime soon for the docs for V1.1 of the C++ library. All of them are in Forrest format.

Cheers,
        Berin

Hi guys,

I have almost finished the move to Maven (maven.apache.org) of the entire codebase and website.

Once this run is done I will upload the site to my webserver for people to take a look at.. it should be up at http://aalbes.hosting.west.nl/~erwin/xml-security

Maven has some huge advantages.. it's dead-easy to generate a whole bunch of reports over the code.. metrics, unit tests and unit test coverage being the most important ones. It's a definate advantage to see those.
Another advantage is that it's a hell of a lot easier to test different dependencies.


There are 2 problems with it though.. one is that the xdoc dialect is slightly different that Forrest used, but I converted most of those..
That leaves the much bigger problem of it being next to impossible with the present directory layout..


To do this properly we would need to move all directories except C into a directory called java.
This is something we would have wanted to do for a while (it makes a lot of sense), but are we prepared to do it? Considering CVS has no allowance of moving files and we would lose the history?..


I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, but what are other people's opinions?

Erwin
