updates 2001.07.01

Folks, I've just done my usual check-in-a-pile-of-bits to
the SourceForge CVS.

Main message: probably *stay away* from the ARK/arkbase/ark
changes unless you're Matt or Jonathan :-)  They work to at
least a basic level, but I haven't tested them enough beyond
that.

The changes are aiming toward much-improved "provenance"
handling (keeping track of what info came from what
prototypes), which should ultimately have major implications
for How Cool this ARK stuff is.  I will leave that for a
separate message sometime...

I killed the <pre-build> package method (we weren't using
it), and renamed <mkdir-deploy-build> to <mkdir-deploy>.
You shouldn't care.

The other thing on my hit list is to generalize
<constraint>s somewhat; Matt is doing some cool things, too,
even if he is too shy to tell you about them.

Anybody got anything they need help with?

Will
