HI all,

Following are the goals I included to the dist-src distro maven build.
    | default

    |    Build all the modules

    |

    | clean

    |    Deletes the 'target' directory in all projects

    |

    | dist-bin

    |           Creates the main binary distribution

    |

    | dist-docs

    |           Creates the javadocs distribution (*without xdocs*)

    |

    | dist-src

    |           Creates the source distribution

    |

    | release

    |      Creates the release (dist-bin, dist-src,dist-docs, war)

    |

    | war

    |    Build the war

Please notice the change in the dist-docs goal.. In the src distro
it'll create only the java docs, since we do not have the xdocs
folder.. Other than that the all the above goals are more or less
identical to the main build in the svn....

Thanks,
Thilina
