Hmmm, so robot != tomcat after all, and instead robot == forrestbot? In my own usage I was using forrest with tomcat for development, but for deployment I would generate a static version, and so I identified "generated from the command-line" with static. Forrestbot never really entered my conciousness. But, considering my usage as an example, isn't it true that the robot is a somewhat separate issue from static versus dynamic. The current wording makes it sound like the only options are dynamically hosted or deployed with a robot. I think that's what was indirectly causing my confusion, since I knew there was another possibility. -- Brett Presnell Department of Statistics University of Florida http://www.stat.ufl.edu/~presnell/ "We don't think that the popularity of an error makes it the truth." -- Richard Stallman () ascii ribbon campaign - against html mail /\ - against microsoft attachments
