Jacek, Looks like WTP will have xdoc2 support for their 1.0 (got a note
saying it's in this weeks I-build) so perhaps we should consider not
maintaining two streams and focus only on xdoclet 2 plugin development.
John S. what do you think? Do you see a reason to maintain both?

Good.
The only technical reason I can think at the top of my head to keep
the 1.x based version is for eclipse tooling integration, as WTP
currently supports the 1.x xdoclet runtimes. I'm not sure wether
they have plans to support 2.x runtime for WTP 1.0. I can ask them.
If so, then perhaps there is no need to support both versions.
I'll be working on XDoclet2 plugin and won't touch what's already
available.
Also how much easier is it to develop XDoclet 2 plugins from a build
perspective? Do you think some of the questions John posted in an
earlier thread can be answered easer with XDoclet2? (i.e can you
build without the source?)
I don't know it yet. I've been reading about the plugin development
and following some conversations and it seemed it would be much
easier. Let me take a look at it a bit and I'll come back with answers
later.
