Grouper Developers Forum

["GW Brown, Information Systems and Computing" <>]

Are you suggesting additional downloads to the ones we currently produce? 
Would there be no Java source in the binary distribution (other than in JAR 
files for convenient debugging)?

I'm not sure we really save any steps as targets such as db-init would 
compile source any way. Don't we pretty much change config files and run 
ant targets as it is?

For WS and UI, given the amount of configuration / customisation I'm not 
sure how much benefit there is to having a binary (WAR?) version.
