I agree with you. I just didn't understand before :P

I would love to get some standard happening I tried once but
as I am effectively a nobody :P no one listened. I figure it
would take someone who was a member of PMC to institute
changes. Thou if you want to try and do something I will
help you :P. 

I have been trying to get various people to use java/apache
stuff for ages and this homogenisation would definetly help
the cause :P. I already got them using Avalon and Cocoon, my
next aim is Turbine :P

Cheers,

Pete
