One matter is that there is currently no build in the 'contribution' module. Meaning that the contributions are not built in the nightly build and are not downloadable from mmbase.org. Well, actually there is still only one 'contribution' there, but we are avidly waiting for mmbob at least.... Simplest would be to simply copy buildbase.xml from 'applications' to 'contributions' or to somehow reuse it. But that would really be less than nice, ant frankly I thought that an argument against by point that the main effect of splitting up 'applications' and 'contributions' would be complication of the build, was that maven would solve that soon... There are some small bugs in the build too, of course, as no code is without bugs. IIRC, and e.g., the documentation target does not always work; it does in some cases not work if build.documentation=false, and I find that it _always should_ build the documentation if you explicitely say so (with something like 'ant build.documentation'). Small issue, not worth fixing if not reasonably sure that it'll remain in use for a reasonable period of time...
