Thanks for the feedback!
Looks good so far. The sections on Ant and CVS apply to non-Windows users,I've invited Mavenites to contribute, I've not recieved anything. Since I do not use Maven, I feel unqualified to
as well. And you might want to include Maven/Jelly in the section on
bulding, which currently has only Ant.
write that section. I'll probably add one on Centipede and wait for the "enthusiastic" response that I'm sure will
follow when I mention it and not the other. Since most projects still use Ant, I covered it first. In my opinion everyone

In general, I'd want a document that explained the existing policies,

That is for another page.. . Its pretty clear here: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/guidelines.html
My goal is to explain what things are and how to use them Jon & others have explained policy pretty well in my
opinion. However, I've been informed that all of my opinions are ill informed... Including that one. ;-)
