The documentation is constantly "under construction". I've recently been mucking about in the wiki.

If not, > how easy (or not) would it be to incorporate those services? None of the containers provide this "out of the box" though you could add such support. As for how easy, that depends more on exactly what you're looking (ie- I need more info). However, your requirements certainly don't sound "out of the question." As Niclas mentioned, you should probably start with Merlin. Here's a number of documents that can help you figure things out: http://avalon.apache.org/merlin/starting/index.html http://avalon.apache.org/developing/index.html <-- slightly dated http://wiki.apache.org/avalon/AvalonYouMakeTheDecision <-- slightly dated Feel free to ask more questions or offer more suggestions. --- jaaron <http://jadetower.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
