Still, it should be easy enough to add some code to fetch it if required. I've done similar in the past for JMeter in Ant, but it should still be possible in Maven.

Worst-case, just provide instructions how to obtain the data. > Gary > >> >> - Jörg >> >> >> --------------------------------------------------------------------- >> To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org >> For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
