Right now I can see 1. JRE 1.1 or better. 2. A JAXP conforming XML parser. 3. Some supported means to compile Java source files - currently this means either you have the sun.tools.javac package or Jikes. I think this is the bare minimum but rules out Javadoc and Rmic tasks (need to change 1. to JDK 1.1 as neither javadoc nor rmic are part of JRE IIRC) which we might want to include in the core. Thoughts? Stefan
