Thanks Nicolas. I had a quick look too to find a way to exclude specialpurpose components from the build/test process and the easiest way (I didn't test it) would be to set the property: specialpurpose.present to false. At the moment it is set with: available file=specialpurpose/build.xml

Yes, it makes a lot of sense to treat the specialpurpose components as hot-deploy components. However I'd suggest to move at small steps in this direction because right now there are specialpurpose components that depends on each other and this would make the story more complicated if you want
