I, too, think that they are separate, but what I am building is much more than a tinderbox tool. Specify the specific versions of the various projects you want in your workspace, and your configuration will be made to your precise specifications. You are also left with two batch files / shell scripts that can be used to update and build any or all of the projects at any time. Syntax: update ( all | project... ) build ( all | project [target...] ) In short, I plan to use it they way I used to use the various build.bat/build.sh scripts that are associated with the various projects. > Therefore, I think you should make a name for your tinderbox > tool (if there isn't one already) and propose it to the PMC > as a new Jakarta project. I would be very +1 on that. I don't know if this is relevant, but there isn't any Java content in the project itself at the moment. I've also avoided an product specific XSL extensions. This being said, this code was designed to target Jakarta and related projects. - Sam Ruby
