The avalon module has it in itself already. As for excalibur, try the Tweety doc build, and look in that to see how it's done-reused. >>A suggestion: in Centipede, I can use Maven's Anakia to generate the >>documentation.

I think that Peter uses Anakia because he wasn't able to use supplied Cocoon, and that it's a temporary thing. > I don't want the build environment confused anymore than necessary. > > Is the report true?

I brought this up when you were away and IIRC Peter needed an interim solution to continue working. AFAIK we're reverting to Cocoon now. -- Nicola Ken Barozzi [EMAIL PROTECTED] - verba volant, scripta manent - (discussions get forgotten, just code remains) --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
