Hi Erik,

Can you please give a brief example to show us how to use the
AssetExternalizer?  Where should the AssetExternalizer be set up and
configured?

If possible, can you add it to the FAQ because I believe it is not in
any of the documentation or in the TIA book?

Thanks,
-Patrick

You will need c:\products be web accessible for this to work, check  
out the externalizer capability built into Tapestry asset handling:
