I think Ant's right that that's the approach we discussed a while back when we started out with 2.x. There is a load of stuff already in contrib and I don't quite remember how we arrived at that. I seem to remember Luciano did a merge from the old equinox branch and I assume that what was in trunk went to contrib and the merged results went into modules etc. If that is the case (Luciano?) I guess we can just remove any duplicates that are in contrib now and, as Ant says, move unused modules, itests etc into contrib. Simon
