Mmm, you're probably right. I'll try to fix it in the current state, if 
not possible (which I doubt) I'll roll back the whole URL refactoring.

Fantastic! Could you configure it to mail this list when builds fail?
Sadly, we don't have a proper test suite yet, but we have samples, and 
a lot of inconsistencies/errors in XDoclet are discovered when samples 
are built. Can you set up GUMP to build 
xdoclet/core/samples/script/build.xml too?

TIA,
Aslak
