I'm halfway through the samples, but haven't moved any class yet. IMO, we can have four dirs: src/, src/scratchpad, src/optional and src/contrib. Each one of them creates a separate jar in the build, like scratchpad does now. The optional and contrib components must follow a precise rule: keep the samples in a separate sitemap each, and have a .xoptional entry (or whatever, we can enhance-change the implementation at will) to specify the libs-resources it needs. When we are done with the Blocks thread and implementation, we can make this deployment method used instead. Is this ok? > Should it be located in a seperate cvs? > Enough -1's.

Makes sense. > Now, back to the POI problem... :) :-) Ok, my opinion is that it can go in a contrib dir, as described above Now that a consensus has been reached, I'll go in this direction as fast as possible, hopefully to be finished by the end of this week. I'm happy that we found this solution: from a problem we created an opportunity, and this is good :-) -- Nicola Ken Barozzi [EMAIL PROTECTED] - verba volant, scripta manent - (discussions get forgotten, just code remains) --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
