Description Jesse Glick 2006-02-14 20:38:15 UTC

I tried to Copy the sysprops nb.org project to a temp dir in order to package it
up and send it to someone as a standalone module for demo. But this just
resulted in some kind of exception when trying to load the result, since
<standalone/> was missing. Should have added <standalone/> and also moved
build.xml to build.xml.bak or similar (so a new one using the harness would be
generated).

Not critical, but would be nice to make it easier to move modules in and out of
nb.org, at least until we refactor the nb.org build system to use true suites.

Yes true. I would like to either make suite operations independent on Project
APIs or enhance Project APIs itself (not possible for updates). Since the
current implementation is weak from user-friendliness point of view in the case
of apisupport. I can imagine some useful options/question when moving/renamin...
suite components or handling this case.

I'm not working on APISupport anymore. Reassigning to owner of the component, so
the issue is not 'forgotten' forever.

Not into 7.0 or next release. Feel free to reopen if more important than it seems.
