No problem, the full directory structure will be posted as many
times as necessary to get agreement.

I will definitely help with this, Anakia will be used
and with some functionality Geir added where I can get
at VMs within Anakia I should be able to make Anakia
work in a more general fashion.

I believe this is necessary for a released product, I don't know
how many times I would have introduced bugs into Velocity
without the testbed. I swear by it. It is the only way
to agressively make changes and refactor without fear. The
testbed misses things sometimes, but it goes a long way.
I realize that making a testbed for Turbine will be an
immense task, but I still think it is requisite.

Is there any source beautifier that is any good that we can use?
Fedor pointed out that there is one in NetBeans that we can probably
use? If we find a tool that we can include in the TDK it will
probably make things easier.

I'm almost there with Anakia, I would like to use it as well.

Ok, I will get started and post things over the next few
nights when I'm finished with day work :-)
