I was using the bootstrap, but didn't really know what it was (I was
just working from the examples).

Are there plans to move towards using ant for the java examples? I
didn't even bother looking at the Makefile's because there just not
natural for a java developer (I haven't used makefiles since I
developed in C 6+ years ago). I ended up just extracting the
generated jar's to figure out what was required.

Thanks,
Mike
