Not sure I understand. I don't see abstractdatastore nor contentdatastore anywhere - neither in a doc/tutorial directory nor in the modules/unsupported directory. Am I looking in the wrong tree (you didn't answer my question about working in trunk)? Or are you working on these locally and have not committed anything to SVN yet?

There are two data store tutorials; both need help.

- abstractdatastore (this is first datatore tutorial; it has more content; but I need to be sure the code compiles). I will finish dragging the text over this evening.

- contentdatastore this is the replacement which has a cleaner code base; but is read-only. I think some more work is needed before we can do a good read/write support based on it. By clean - it has way less methods and classes - and is more configuration rather than subclass magic methods.

    Re datastore tutorial: Questions:
     - should I be working in trunk?
     - I see /docs/user/tutorial/advanced/datastore.txt -- is that the one
    you're talking about?
     - I see CSVDataStore.java (and others) also under docs/src/main -- is
    that the relevant java? How is that 'unsupported'? Just trying to
    understand the basics...
     - I see the name 'jive' as the author in svn -- is that you? Is there
    a list of svn usernames somewhere?

    Thanks,

    It needs to get done as well.
