Great.

Right after releasing v1.1 I'll join you, atm I'm workin on ejb:pk
issues reported by Rickard. I'll probably implement it for
ejb:data-object too.

I hope you make javcchome external too :-)

After releasing v1.1.

I hope someday jrefactory will support it too, sadly importscrubber
needs class files too, I was thinking about integrating it with
<pretty/> but it's not possible. Anyway please use <pretty/> too, try to
make it like xdoclet module.

Me too! But I think IDEA can handle it pretty nicely.

Keep it up! I'll join you very soon :o)
