Alex:
I've just committed a couple of changes to the sources. First of I renamed getTargetUrls() to getBlockUrls() because the word "targets" is ambigouse with respect to usage of the term in the configuration targets context. Secondly I updated String getRemoteRepositoryUrl() to be String[] getRemoteRepositoryUrls() because there can be multiple remote fallback repositories declared to the local repository.
Concerning the approach on aquisition of block urls (which I copied over for remote host urls) .. the current code checks for system properties beginning with BLOCK_URLS_BASE (was TARGET_URL_BASE). I'm thinking around with an alternative approach of just a single property and treating it as a comma delimited enumeration. I think this would be easier to override for users at the environment or property level.
I'm going to tweak some of the property names and setup some default values in the merlin.properties file. Finally, two things I think are still open - (a) we cannot assume that ${user.home} is non-null. The are situations where a null value can be returned in a servlet environment. Second item - we need to be able to override the location of the user repository at the environment level.
Am digging some more so you want to check CVS for updates later today.
Cheers, Steve.

Steve,
I'm just checkpointing a chunk of the work on the kernel-loader. Here's a patch and just in case a tarball of the loader directory. Let me know when you patch so I can update and continue working on it.
Thanks,
Alex
