Sorry for the late reply. Yes, if possible then Apache Forrest would like to continue. Forrest is a consumer of many other projects. Our gump metadata have been configured to utilise our local copy of some of those. For others we use the gump-built one. Gump has a special copy of Cocoon-2.1 but we could change to use the abovementioned approach. So Forrest could re-jig ours to use the up-to-the-minute version of whatever Gump does provide, and then use our local copies for the rest. -David > Metadata for many projects have been neglected for a long time and it is > quite possible they'd need some love for results to be meaningful.
