 <p>The integration tests of ACE are placed in separate projects that are -by convention- named with a '<tt>.itest</tt>' suffix. These integration tests use BndTools to get an OSGi framework up and running. To run one or all integration tests, use "Run As -&gt; OSGi JUnit Test" or "Debug As -&gt; OSGi JUnit Test".</p>

 <p>The command line build for Apache ACE is based on Ant, and generated automatically when using the Bndtools plugin in Eclipse.</p>
 <p>The build is structured as a flat hierarchy of projects, and you can go into any of these projects to build just that project and its dependencies. There are two special projects:</p>
 <ol>
-<li>cnf -- Which is collection of repositories that contain all the required dependencies for building and running Apache ACE.</li>
-<li>build -- A project that depends on all other projects and is used to build everything.</li>

 <h2 id="how-to">How to...</h2>
 <h3 id="create-a-distributable-archive">...create a distributable archive</h3>
 <p>The next step is to create an archive for the server, so we end up with something we can actually run:</p>
-<div class="codehilite"><pre><span class="nv">$</span> <span class="nv">ant</span> <span class="o">-</span><span class="n">f</span> <span class="n">bin</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">build</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">xml</span> <span class="nb">package</span>
+<div class="codehilite"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>ant -f bin-build.xml package
 </pre></div>
 
 
 <p>Now, in the generated folder, two archives will have been created, and there are also subfolders with the same names as the archives that you can go into and run. You can start the server like this:</p>
-<div class="codehilite"><pre><span class="nv">$</span> <span class="nv">cd</span> <span class="n">generated</span><span class="o">/</span><span class="n">ace</span><span class="o">-</span><span class="n">devserver</span>
-<span class="nv">$</span> <span class="nv">sh</span> <span class="n">run</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">sh</span>
+<div class="codehilite"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span><span class="nb">cd </span>generated/ace-devserver
+<span class="nv">$ </span>sh run.sh
 </pre></div>
 
 
 <h3 id="add-an-osgi-bundle">...add an OSGi bundle</h3>
 <p>The easiest way to add an OSGi bundle, is to drag it onto the "Local Repository" entry in the "Repositories" view, or to use the "Add files to repository" toolbar icon. Bndtools will analyze the files you try to add and show their metadata if they're indeed valid bundles.</p>
-<p>The bundles will end up in the local repository inside the <code>cnf</code> project.</p>
+<p>The bundles will end up in the local repository inside the <tt>cnf</tt> project.</p>
 <h3 id="add-a-java-library">...add a Java library</h3>
 <p>If you want to add a library that does not contain any OSGi metadata, you can follow the steps below to add it to the "Library Repository" so it can be used in all other projects within Apache ACE. If your library does have sensible OSGi metadata, please follow the "...add an OSGi bundle" instructions above.</p>
 <ol>
 <li>Copy the library to the right location.
-    The jar file for the library should be copied to the following location: <code>cnf/lib/foo/foo-1.0.0.jar</code></li>
+    The jar file for the library should be copied to the following location: <tt>cnf/lib/foo/foo-1.0.0.jar</tt>. Note that the directory name should be equal to the basename of the added JAR file, that is, everything <em>before</em> the version-string of the JAR.</li>
 <li>
-<p>Update the repository.xml.
-    After making changes to anything in cnf/lib/ you need to update the index file that describes the contents of the repository. To do this enter the following commands:</p>
