Hi gang!

yes, we are using SVN! No, we are not using CVS! ASF infra has been trying to get more and more projects to use it; all of avalon completely moved to SVN a few weeks back. For us to start using svn was a simple matter of an svn copy executed after some permissions were set.

Like I said earlier, some basic instructions are at

  http://excalibur.apache.org/svn.html

Once you've done a checkout as described there, you build it like so:

  cd $directory_where_you_checked_out_trunk
  less README.txt # build instructions
  maven multiproject:install

the following should work too (but doesn't atm):

  cd $directory_where_you_checked_out_trunk
  less README.txt # build instructions
  cd buildsystem/jbs
  less README.txt # more build instructions
  ant -buildfile install.xml
  cd ../..
  ant

this is not working because the installation of the jbs build system won't work because I screwed up a repository on sourceforge. I'll fix this today or tomorrow. Of particular note is a whole slew of failing test cases. These have been failing for months.

Gump is not yet building excalibur from svn. Instead, it is building a stale copy from cvs. I plan to get that fixed today or tomorrow as well.

cheers,

- Leo
