Am just saying that there were several hundred files in there, and that
pointed to the complexity of the website and the necessity of having a
proper build, deployment environment
(eclipse/netbeans+cvs/svn/hg+ant/maven+jee container) and that's going to
seriously restrict the number of people who can effectively work on the
site.

In any case, I did not mean to be snarky. I just think that the website can
be made much simpler.

(Yes I read your comment on Jim's blog about the "collective asses", and I
figure I would cause less damage contributing to the web site rather than in
the ON code.)
