Here is the notes I took while installing Gumpy:
- gumpy.sh is not executable
- why provide and workspace are in different files?
- workspace "email|maillist" should be "to|from" since you might not want to send it to mail list but to yourself
- where do relative directories start from? [shouldn't there be a "basedir" attribute like for ant build files?]
- there is no -h|--help for gumpy
- the "-d|--debug" CLI parameter doesn't do anything
- the "workspace" configuration template should contain all the possible parameters that gumpy recognizes as comments
- I think the "this runs the Python Gump" can go away now
- running the minimal-profile.xml generates 15% of successes and 27% of failures and 57% of prereqs. *Not exactly promising*
- ant says "success" when the "bootstrap-ant" is a failure... *smells like severe problems here*
- bootstrap-ant fails with this
... Bootstrapping Ant Distribution
... Compiling Ant Classes
src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/Target.java:223: cannot resolve symbol
symbol : class Hashtable
location: class org.apache.tools.ant.Target
Hashtable t = (p == null) ? null : p.getTargets();

... Failed compiling Ant classes!where the classpath is
CLASSPATH :/opt/java/lib/tools.jar
I think it should at least contain the rt.jar but the documentation didn't say anything about that!
- would be definately a *LOT* easier if the command line printed stuff instead of just being silent and you have to keep hitting reload on the browser just to know what's going on!
- now I added the classpath as
export CLASSPATH=$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/rt.jar:$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar
but the page says that classpath is
CLASSPATH :/opt/java/jre/lib/rt.jar /opt/java/lib/tools.jar

Enough for tonight.
Overall experience: not so bad, but it *definately* needs polishing... it totally feels like a system that only one guy uses :-/ we'd better fix that.
