Hi, Yesterday I checked out (for the second time) Woden sources and thoughts of giving some comments on that.
1. Normally the HEAD of the build should be inside the trunk folder. But I saw the sources are inside a folder called "java". Was this intentional? Almost all the Apache projects follow the same structure of having the sources inside the trunk. 2. I saw test resources like wsdl files, xml files were kept inside the test folder itself. Again from Apache WS project space, we have always have a separate folder called "test-resources" to hold all the test resources. Is there any reason behind putting the test sources within the test folder itself? Don't you its better to have only the test classes within the test folder and test resources inside the "test-resources"? 3. I saw there were several zip files getting downloaded to get some dependency jars. Can we not download the whole zips and only download the dependent jars? All the dependent jars are available in maven repos. Since I'm a maven fan, and since its better to have a maven build for Woden, I wrote the proper maven artifacts to use maven as the additional build system of Woden. You can run the goals in the existing ant build file as usual except you have to prefix your command with maven. For example, if u were running ant dist, then now you have to run maven run dist to run thru maven. I didn't remove the existing ability to use ant as the build system, but if one doesn't like to use ant (like me), he can use maven without a problem. I created a JIRA [1] attaching the patch. Thanks, Chinthaka [1] : http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WODEN-36
