Hello Avalon users,

looking at the archives I got the impression that for our project I should give Merlin 
a try, since we will have a lot of dynamic services.

Unfortunately I got nothing running and I wonder, whart I am doing wrong. Steps 
already taken:

Built avalon, avalon-excalibur, avalon-sandbox and avalon-logkit from CVS (although 
instrumental-client in excalibur fails, but this seems not essential, I removed the 
target from the build.xml). I also synced avalon-site (but the build fails here, too).

Now I have a lot of new jars, but none of the documented methods to start Merlin works:

- http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/excalibur/merlin/index.html sais that I have to run 
"kernel" after ant; unfortunately there is no "kernel"
- 
http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/excalibur/merlin/api/org/apache/excalibur/merlin/Main.html
 has a line to run the samples, but the line corresponds to directories that are not 
available. Anyway I tried to run:

$ java -Djava.extension.dirs=./lib -jar build/lib/avalon-merlin-2.1.jar 
src/etc/kernel.xml 
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
build/lib/avalon-merlin-2.1.jar

build/conf/kernel.xml 
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
build/lib/avalon-merlin-demo-1.0.jar

I also wonder about the content in merlin-bootstrap-2.1.jar, because any Merlin code 
is included as Java source, but not as class file.

Any hints?
