First - it's just a convenience, so you could remove it if you wanted,
with the possible disadvantages that Mike mentioned.

Second - the files were originally included, I removed them after
licensing issues were mentioned - then there was a lengthy discussion
(which I don't remember anymore), after which I committed them again
as they seemed to be save.

Typing them in by hand might be a save way to get around all eventual problems.

Martin

I have tools that will create a DTD for a specific xml file.
Perhaps someone can provide a comprehensive faces-config file matching
the DTD and I can just parse the DTD from that file?

Seems like that'd be easier (or at least give a better starting point)
than going from scratch.
