Hi Stephen,

I still didn't really try the tool, but had a look at the site.

Some minor comments:
- FAQ [1] displays en empty page
- better if the name of the parent pom is "Annimal Sniffer" instead of "Animal 
Sniffer Parent project", since it is used in breadcrumbs [2]
- the doc seems quite extensive, great. I only didn't find any index of 
signature files. Such index should be very useful for anybody, then 

This tool seems really useful, particularly as of today since toolchains are 
not available in compiler plugin. I'll have a try over the week-end.

Thank you

Hervé
