The idea was to combine your favorite tagged versions of all the released packages into a single JAR -- you can override the individual per-package tags to suit your desires, but the basic theory was that the checked-in build script would always grab the latest release of each. (At the moment the default tags are slightly behind the times; I will fix that shortly). As an extra added benefit, it also builds integrated Javadocs as well. > -- Robert Craig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
