In regards to my other mail I say: - locationmap for all properties that need to point to existing source - properties module (merge of defaults and project) aka forrestConf for all string based props. Where we should support for 0.8 both file formats and for 0.9 only the xml based one (a conversion class should not be too hard to implement). Regarding the merge I found 69 matches for "{defaults:" and 1.055 matches for "{project:" in forrest instance (build incl.) This could be replaced by "{property:defaults|project" then we just need to update the xconf. salu2 > Ross > -- thorsten "Together we stand, divided we fall!" Hey you (Pink Floyd)
