>From whats been said in this thread and elsewhere some people would still want an Ant build within each sample to build the actual contribution. I think what you're suggesting is to split the building the contribution and running it in Tuscany into two separate build steps which are run from separate places, but going back to the review comments in 2.0-Beta1 that approach wasn't found totally helpful. It also means that there isn't a way to run samples without having a binary distribution which is also something that has been asked for. It is getting hard to think of something that will meet everyones wishes with all the divergent views. I still quite like the helloworld sample thats in unreleased. Maybe what we need to do is create some more samples for different approaches and then see what sort of distribution or distributions we would need to release them. Or does anyone have any other suggestions on what to do? ...ant
