Just my 2p.....
Hmm, removing WAR ? I know there's been some discussion about the use of
zipfilesets but doesn't this approach make things less easy for end users?
Personally, I prefer the 'clean' syntax of <war> but I guess as long as
there's a war, ear, rar, car example in the docs under jar then I suppose it
doesn't matter.
I'll resend ear in a mo.
Bye,
Les
