Yep, it has become very difficult to find information now.

Sorry, mispoke. My sentence after that should've been the first. Now I understand that the refs directory is gone completely. Will these be updated? I don't have time right now, but if I get a chance I will add some stuff to the docs (like links to properties included in the plug-ins), or is this not advised? > Re: Jalopy plugin - no idea, never used.

I saw: http://maven-plugins.sourceforge.net, will the plug-ins be moving (and therefore not rely on the maven build process to wait for them)? The biggest benefit I could see would be to add something like jEdit's update feature, so that you could check for new plug-ins and download them. jEdit also has a nice feature where the plug-in tells it what version of jEdit requires in order to use them. -warner > > -- > dIon Gillard, Multitask Consulting > Work: http://www.multitask.com.au > Developers: > http://adslgateway.multitask.com.au/developers > > > "Warner Onstine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > 09/28/2002 09:34 PM MSTPlease respond to "Turbine > Maven Users List" > > To "Turbine Maven Users List" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > cc > bcc > Subject Re: plug-ins and site documentation > > > So, since no-one has bothered to answer these > questions I'll reply myself. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Warner Onstine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, September 25, 2002 7:20 PM > Subject: plug-ins and site documentation > > > > Hi all, > > Been away for a while, but am busy converting my > projects over b6 (very > > smooth so far, like the new features).
