Hi Christian,
There is no "real" reason for using vectors. My understanding that Ant used
older API to stay compatible with Java versions predating Collections API. I
guess original WOProject code was influenced by coding style of Ant.
I am all for cleaning it up and using List for the ivar type and ArrayList
for the actual implementation consistently across the project.
