Hi all, Let me just explain a few things first: 1) I stopped checking out Tomcat from CVS the minute I had to download or check out in concert with (the servlet-api) more than five files and had to setup so many properties that the build refused to run. The time commitment was not worth it to me, so I just started downloading the releases 2) I am an active Maven user - I have three projects using Maven. They aren't as complex as Tomcat, but do do some interesting things for Webapps
I would like Tomcat to become easy to build again, when someone decided it was no longer a wise idea to keep the jars in CVS they should have had a reasonable replacement, they didn't and its been painful ever since. I would also like Tomcat to become easy to add documentation to without worrying whether or not something that should have been there (the javadocs for example) was actually there without question. So, If I can get significant developer buy-in I would be willing to cut a version or two of the maven project descriptor for those of us who would like it to be easy again ;-). If not, that's fine. -warner +warner onstine+ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:tomcat-dev-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:tomcat-dev-help@;jakarta.apache.org>
