    Hi Ulrich,

    We have moved some projects to Maven 2. We�re using WebObjects Library
    present on WOLips to deal with WebObjects dependencies and Maven to
    manage other dependencies. This solution works with the WOLips->Install
    option, but doesn�t work for maven builds since the WO classes are missing.

    If I understood, you proposed to rebuild the WO frameworks as JARs and
    put them into maven repository as any other dependency. Then is just a
    matter of setup WO dependencies like any other dependency. Those new
    JARs include the classes, eomodels, components and whatever a WO
    framework could possibly have. And after a complete maven build of a WO
    Application, i.e., we will have an application JAR that can be unzipped
    as a WOA at last. Is that right?

    Best Regards,

    Henrique
