       Body:
It's been discussed before, but the conclusion is it's not really worth it - 
what would you generate it from?  The contents are for the most part a list of 
modules - EJB JARs may contain many beans, so how would you choose which class 
to put the @tags on?  Or, in the case of web modules, there may be only JSPs 
(which XDoclet doesn't parse) and no classes at all, so there's nowhere to put 
them.  So you'd basically end up specifying the entire contents using config 
parameters on the subtask and merge files; if you're going to do that, then 
instead of maintaining the (XML) Ant script plus any XML merge files you may as 
well just maintain the single XML descriptor directly...  No point using 
XDoclet to generate it if that means more work for you, not less :-)
