Regarding System.properties - it's fine as long as we do implement the "properties at the project level" - if we need user.home it's enough to use a simple Task that will set the project properties. The "installation/extension" is just great. I hope that project-level properties doesn't mean only strings - if the access is via API it's possible ( and good) to permit Attributes too. Costin
