The ant build file is currently designed for a full build process.  It does lots of 
extra stuff as a 
result.  I never really got around to making some convenient developer targets, but it 
would not 
be hard to do.

The problem is the code is separated into different areas, and the build process tries 
to 
preserve it.  But there are still dependencies, so it's a little mixed up.

Developer targets could just ignore the organization of the code and compile 
everything once 
and together, make just one jar file.  This would speed development efforts.  Then, 
when it's 
time to do a real binary build for release, the other process can be used.

Get familiar with ant.  It's really great.  and super easy.
