oh.

Well, I'll try that - it's a step forward.  I do think we need to
rapidly come to a conclusion on what to do.  I think we want to have the
drlvm build :

1) point anywhere to a hdk/classlib that's prebuilt and just use the
artifacts in it

2) be invokable from 'above' (as described below)

3) change how the dependencies work.  I think it's nice to be able to do
what it does, but we also need to have the ability to keep those around
locally indep of drlvm, and just use properties to tell drlvm where to
find those resources too, so that way if I have a regular distribution
of say APR on my machine, I can just use it.

Now, this is something for all of us to decide, but I imagined our
project this way :

/drlvm/
/classlib/
/tools/

/deploy/

with each 'subcomponent' (i.e. classlib, drlvm, jchevm) determining it's
own build and just having a clear way to be invoked form above.

We can then invoke the classlib build and have it deposit it's artifacts
into the deploy directory, and then point drlvm to that and have it
build from there - and NOT build classlib.

Further, building on the HDK stuff, I think we'd also want to be able to
do something like :

/drlvm/

/hdk/
   hdk1/
   hdk2/

and point drlvm to build against one of the hdks....

I really appreciate how easy the existing build makes evaluation of
drlvm, but we should consider if we can reuse to get us towards the
above, or if we have to re-do in a manner more like classlib, jchevm, etc...
