I thought of an ant properties file where all components can be specified to be included in a build of an cocoon2-blank.jar. These components could be the Generators, Transformers, Serializers, Readers, Matchers, Selector or Actions one would like to use for its project (with their base jars needed as well[ie. SVGSerializers need batik.jar]). Don't know exactly if such an approach can be used for the general components as well (cocoon.xconf) and how those config files (sitemap.xmap, cocoon.xconf and cocoon.roles) can be ajusted to these selections and whether a skeleton sitemap can be generated according of those settings. My 0.02 euros to this. Giacomo --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
