But this thread was started by you, whose original complaint was that it is difficult to configure packaged archives. The answer is staring you in the face and you can't see it... Deploy these as exploded archives, and modify the configurations whenever you want. > I thought you said you were going to make sorting pluggable... why don't you > just go do that and leave this issue for later?

You don't work for microsoft do you? That's crap, and you know it.

I have already expressed great interest in fixing the root of the problem. What I am presenting is a solution that will get us through until the process is complete. Fine. I give up - unless anyone else requests this and it is agreed that a hack is OK for now, I will not check this in. I'm going to bed. -Larry _______________________________________________ Jboss-development mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-development
