The webapp has been broken, fixed and brokjen again quite a few times
recently wqith the move to reduce the amount of copying from src to build to
run the local wbapp or to build the static site.

I've fixed it a few times and know my way around what is going on fairly
well. However, I don't have the tim to focus on this right now (I have a
looming deadline).

The problem is that the copying of files for the webapp (as in remotely
distributed not locally run in Jetty) is getting very untidy. The target in
question is "webapp", it essentially uses "webapp-local" to do all the
groundwork and then it, should, copy in all other required files (libs etc.)
and create a different cocoon.xconf.

If anyone wnats to tackle this I recomend you look there, if you are better
at Ant scripting than I, then I am sure you can tidy up what I have dopne in
that target. If no-one can find a solution I will need to update a live site
around the end of April, but I won't be able to tackle it before then.

A JIRA bug is a good idea, I'll be reminded of it when I return if it hasn't
been fixed beforehand.

Does it help that we wish to write (and re-write) xdocs into the directory
once done? Is there a simple way to get this installed and then us just
update docs by writting into the directory? Is it easy to tell su what to
move over?
