Hi,

  I just downloaded the 2.1.2 version of Cocoon and it weighs in at
34MB.  Comparing with md5sums the WEB-INF/lib/*.jar files to the 2.1rc1
release I find that 54 of the jar files are the same, and that accounts
for 13MB of disk space.
  The largest jar file that's exactly the same is xalan-2.5.1.jar at
3MB, followed by jdtcore-2.1.0.jar at 2.5MB.

  Does anyone think its a good idea to have a 2.1.2-diff-2.1rc1 release
that doesn't contain these 54 jar files?  When building this release you
would tell ant where to copy the files from, or have some environment
variable OLD_COCOON_HOME that it looks to.

  That's just a first pass (and extremely easy to do) at seeing the
similarities between the two releases.  I'm sure there's a diff utility
out there that can do this for comparing two different directories, and
in this case where the sratchpad moved under /blocks/.  In that case the
difference between garbage/Processor.java files is the CVS checkin
version number.

  I realize that I could go through CVS for this, but I would like to
get the latest stable release instead of the developer one.

try:


cvs update -d -r RELEASE_2_1_2

That should update you to the latest tagged release instead of to head shouldn't it?

Geoff
