Hi everybody,

OK, I'm *almost back*, after a relatively long a hard illness :-(

We'll see, I'll happily join it if something doesn't go wrong. I believe
we can help them with our experience, specially the issues raised by
inheriting or not inheriting attributes, validation of tags (part of the
xtags subproject), and basically defining good attributes! You know
we've defined 100's of @tags ;-) You should really go into it to
discover kind of questions that I've been faced with, not a piece of
cake really.

I knew this would happen, I've said it a year ago. It was even clearer
to me recently when I looked at weblogic workshop. They use exactly the
same @tag format (and amazing though it has a JDK1.4 inside, but they
use @jws:blabla format which makes 1.4's javadoc feel bad! Workshop is
more compatible with xdoclet than Cedric's ejbgen too!!).

Was XDoclet going to act as a semi-jsr on its own? No. I know we've been
standardizing all over the time, even some non-standard tags
(@ejb:persistence for example). It's definitely good news for java. The
next step....

Cheers,
Ara.
