I don't know exactly. Digging into the internals of jigsaw to know why would be too time-consuming. I have 2 guesses: - css-validator can be installed into tomcat but also jigsaw (see https:// jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/DOWNLOAD.html ) - css-validator requires package "org.w3c.www.http" (~60 classes) and some of its dependencies that are shipped in jigsaw. > >>> How would you ship the **war** or **webapp**? > >> > >> If vnu doesn't require the webapp, do not package it.

I find it useful to ship also the webapp. Without it, we only have the command line interface and I don't know if it is feature-equivalent. All the html files of the webapp are not shipped otherwise. We could also drop the package in future if it is source of problems or maintenance burden? Regards Fab
