I don't think a Gump descriptor is any more complex than an ant build script, or a Maven project file, and it is documented (if imperfectly, http://gump.apache.org/metadata/index.html) -- but I think it is something so infrequently visited that folks don't understand it. Maybe somebody creates it, it works faultlessly for eons [only nagging occasionally], and then when it breaks perhaps the author is unavailable. Folks don't touch it every day, in order to get used to it. What has occur (to me) out of this is the need more annotations in Gump descriptors, and (I'd like to add) a page per descriptor where Gump annotates the descriptor it has. I.e. lot of "this was set in this project therefore (based on doc reference blah) this will occur...". Gumpy is a lot more transparent than it was, but needs to be even more transparent to appeal to the general community. regards Adam --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
