I think it is common use to have
build.xml in the root of a source package (at least for jakarta projects)

just

like readme.txt, changes.txt, lisence.txt files.

I agree this would be even better, provided we can live with a single build
script.
There are several other build scripts now, but I have no idea what they are
for.

build-example.properties
--> is an build.properties with some default settings

build-from-srcdist.properties
--> is only needed in a src-distro, when the build.xml is in the root dir of the packages. This can be removed if build.xml is moved into the root.

build-in-distro.xml
--> can be removed

build-old.xml
--> can be removed

build.xml
--> this one must be moved into the root and be splitted into a number of smaller build.xml in the different dirs.

legal
--> hmmm....if we move this one, were do we have to put these? Into documentation?


nightly-build.xml
also move into the root?
