an aged component has finally been removed from the project. net impact on the new and *entirely* optimized and signicantly reduced build process ... operated like a champ, just the way it should. the "process elder" would've severely hurled.

next up, i need to dynamically gen the associated html doc to look something like the existing builds. given the contents can vary my thoughts are to use the Ant script tag coupled with rhino jar. turns out the latest bsf and rhino don't compile and based on some google'ing this looks to be an open issue for awhile. so, i pulled the source and hacked a quick bsf patch ... something about a JavaScriptException that needed 3 more args in the constructor ... and now have it compiling and trivial examples working. i posted the following trivial diff to the bsf list:

i considered an xml/xslt solution but my head hurts the way it is and at this point i'm simply trying to stop the bleeding vs dress this pup for the prom.

next up: 

• cvs rm old artifacts
• gen releative index.html
• cvs add new artificats
• cvs commit
• smile and crack a beer ... franziskaner is my fave
