<<<Why are classpath files generally not included in open source
projects?>>>

because they're always wrong <G>...

If I put mine in c:\apache, and you put yours in c:\trunk, our classpath
files will reflect that. And I *really* don't want to update the project and
get my classpath file overwritten with yours.

Not to mention that I *actually* work on a mac, where Ant has been
installed in /usr and.......

Not to mention other libraries. And what about plugins?

That said, one *can* include a sample classpath and, perhaps, project
file,  that can be copied to "the correct place" and changed to reflect the
local setup as has been done on the Wiki, see:
