And maybe it is easier to just do your own javadoc target,  but maybe 
there is a general way to solve this problem
Centipede uses the gump module.xml to declare dependencies. 
So if you declare   <depend project="commons-cli" />
We can look up (from gump)  the commons-cli module.xml,  from there we 
can get the package declaration, and the location of the javadocs.


Could be done, but I have never had that itch.  Feel free to scratch.
The point is Centipede   is just  shared ant snippets.  Some things can 
be shared. 
Lets share the targets that we can.
