The same could be done for maven.
A screen scraper would be acceptable. This has been discussed but by the time we finally determined that I had lost interest. Do you know of anything that we can use to easily make screen scapers? It would be easy enough to prompt users for input for click through licenses. We just need to present the text of the license verbatim. -- jvz. Jason van Zyl jason at maven.org http://maven.apache.org People develop abstractions by generalizing from concrete examples. Every attempt to determine the correct abstraction on paper without actually developing a running system is doomed to failure. No one is that smart. A framework is a resuable design, so you develop it by looking at the things it is supposed to be a design of. The more examples you look at, the more general your framework will be. -- Ralph Johnson & Don Roberts, Patterns for Evolving Frameworks --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
