I am insterested in creating the metadata that fortress requires without
using the javadoc tags.

We have an application using the old ECM roles files and turning its
contents into javadoc tags into 750 or so java classes is unappealing.
Plus, we are using a tool at development time that maintains our roles
file for us and needs it to be there for us to continue to be able to
use it, and it does not know about the javadoc tags.

So, what I'm thinking is writing something to take the roles file and
make the .meta files and the services.list file and whatever else
fortress might need, perhaps through an XSL transform....

You seasoned fortress guys and gals: does this sound feasible? Is there
documentation (stop laughing!) about the format of the metadata, or do I
need to reverse engineer classes like
org.apache.avalon.fortress.tools.ComponentMetaInfoCollector and hack it?
Or is it so simple as to be trivial?
