The sources and references elements are used to determine whether or not the project needs to be re-compiled. VB6 by defulat, will recompile a project, even if none of the referenced .dlls or source files have been changes. On our 26 project file VB6 build, this saves a TON of time since only projects whose source files and/or dependant dlls have changed will get recompiled.

I suggest making it optional or remove it. - Two filesets are defined : 'references' and 'sources'. These are not used as the _real_ project references and sources however, since that information is specified in the project file. Is it useful to have two filesets, or would one fileset named 'dependencies' be less confusing?
