Re: org.webmacro.lib

This seems okay to me.

I would do it the way you suggest.
So if you have got a datetool allready, please send it to me.
I will sort out what can go in.

Write a final suggestion and then wait for a week or so if
somebody votes agains it.

(I don't know if I should do this via this mailinglist, or is
webmacro-dev still active?)
