Hi all,

I'm wondering if anyone has picked up this thread:

http://old.nabble.com/buildr-pre-compile-JSP-for-war--td17109370.html#a17109370

It's more than 3 years old, but Buildr still seems to be lacking this 
functionality. I wrote a JSP pre-compiler specific for my company, but would be 
willing to try to abstract it. Again, being new to Ruby and Buildr, I'm trying 
to figure out the best way to integrate this functionality. It's java specific, 
and I had thought that a couple of possibilities could be to 
a.) extend the java compiler functionality (though jsp compilation seems like a 
stretch here), 
b.) to extend the WAR packaging functionality (where I'm leaning), 
c.) separate it completely like the scala plugin (make this is more robust?), 
d.) or even just drop it in as an add-on (not sure the pros/cons). 

I'm looking for some views or opinions on a best approach. Any thoughts?

So far here's what I have as a project extension (it uses the user's 
TOMCAT_HOME to build a dependency graph, as well as makes some other 
assumptions):

Thanks,
