Hi, A thought occurred to me : there is currently work underway to try to get the existing jspwiki code into the apache svn repository. But it appears that up to now the practice has been to check binarydependencies in to the sjpwiki cvs repository. This makes the repository*much much* larger than it would be without them. May I suggest that this practice be reconsidered *before* the import into apache svn, ie that *only* the source code be imported?

In most apache java projects, the practice is to either use maven2 (which pulls libraries directly from the archives held at repo1.maven.org, or ibiblio.org/maven2) or to use Ant tasks that fetch the necessary libraries from exactly the same locations.
And the Ivy project also might be worthwhile to investigate. I don't claim to understand how it's different from maven but someone else should be able to explain this.
