OK I'll work on a patch for the xdoclet stuff after I have tested it with
the vanilla Ant build script

You can reply offline, but I'd be intereted to understand your very strong
objecttions to maven

In my experience (as borne out by the OS projects I caoncerted as well) it
results in a much cleaner build structure and far less gumpf in the build
scripts

Anyway I let you know about the OSUser XDoclet changes
