Hi Marc G. and Ron C.
Ron - Thanks for your response a couple of days ago, explaining where
the downloaded .pom and .jar files went. I need to identify all of them
so I can review their licenses. You were very helpful.
Marc - I'm glad we have an explanation for my difficulties building an
archived release. When an open source tool is bundled with Open Solaris,
we require the ability for users to rebuild the tool on their own
installation of Open Solaris. Instead of spending effort fixing the
build process for an old WebTest release, we are now considering waiting
for WebTest 3.0. That could mean additional delay before the WebTest
package becomes available to Open Solaris users, but it seems like a
better use of the resources.
Quoting from your response on 2 Dec 2008, "I believe that the next
release will be first available in the beginning of January. The reason
is that it has to be 3.0 due to the upgrade from Java 1.4 to Java 5 and
it is worth waiting for coming release 2.4 of HtmlUnit that provides (as
usual) a lot of improvements.".
For planning the Open Solaris releases, we need to know target date as
accurately as possible. Can you tell us the release date planned for
WebTest 3.0? How firm is the date, or what factors could affect the date?
Thanks again for your help and encouragement.

Hi Vaughn,
now I understand the problem. The dataDriven code is located in an other
SVN repository and is incorporated in WebTest SVN tree using
svn:external. The problem here is that these external dependencies don't
get tagged together with the rest of the project. The only solution that
I see here is to get the PropertyTable (the original name of dataDriven)
by hand at the date of the 2.6 release.
Perhaps did you already say it but I don't remember: why do you need to
build by yourself? Aren't the archives ok?
Cheers,
Marc.
