Hmmm, no, if I understand that one, they are quite different:  I want
to build add-ons *outside of the DSpace source tree*, not scoop them
in and rebuild the whole works.  This requires planning when designing
the bits that are added onto:  what must be exposed to make it
feasible to build a future add-on solely against the DSpace binary
artifacts?

(I don't think I made it clear previously that I want to build out-of-tree.)

That may be a place to look for models, then.
