Hello Tim

thanks for the quick answer.
Normally I use a masterbuild target for do all the necessary stuff for
cruisecontrol.
So, run unit test with emma, make javadoc etc.
I saw that I can do it with calling more targets at once in cruisecontrol.
But i prefer to write a goal for that.

Another sinple problem I have is, that I want to make a copy job to deploy
the jar to a non maven project.
In ant: 
 <target name="copy-to-otherproject">
 <copy todir="../anotherproject/lib" >
...

Can you help?

Thanks
Juergen
