Maybe something like this: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOT/How+to+add+a+3rd+party+jar
I know that there is always possible to add more documentation, but I kindly ask you to appreciate that most people within the open source world do this without getting payed. If you've found some documentation that you think is missing, dig in and figure out how it works and submit that (docs or whatever) as a patch. If you don't know where to submit please ask, we'll point you in the right direction. /Anders On Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 14:32, Ron Wheeler <rwhee...@artifact-software.com>wrote: > Anders Hammar wrote: > >> Eh, not sure what you mean.
