And, of course, the webslinger stuff I have started to commit won't nescessarily be used until the final step. This means there will be a window where ofbiz has to maintain the code, with no apparent use case for it. However, what is good, is that Adrian's conversion framework was a more advanced version of a library that webslinger already had, and I was able to convert over to it with relative ease.
