If daemon is to be the out of the box mechanism please make it easier than trivial to switch it off. [ . . . ] > Not sure we can do much about this.

OK, we just have to make sure everyone know that Maven fibs about build times. Actually I would be happy not having the times. Sadly though Ant and Maven do this and people feel bereft if they don't get it -- I had to add it to Gant for this reason :-(( -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:[email protected] 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: [email protected] London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
