You won't need them and the plexus and geronimo builds will be proof of that. Today was infact the first day a build using arbitrary recursive inheritance and transitive dependencies occurred. Michal finished checking in his wagon integration into m2, I tweaked it a bit and presto! A new level of manageability. I really, really, really don't want to promote the use of entities. I've kept my mouth shut because they were really the only way to work around some congenital problems in m1. m2 is a ways off and there will be some surveys for users and one of questions will be regarding the use of entities. No one will probably want to use them anyway with m2. > Before making so many changes... just want verify. > > TIA, > -TR > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- jvz.
