a more specific question about JXR

Ok.  Where can I found an example of the output of JXR?  I'm looking for 
.java files exported to HTML and links in a hierarchical structure similar
to the Linux Cross Reference (LXR) project.  Is that a long-term vision for
JXR or does JXR do all of that today?  What I see on the Alexandria site is
some pretty-printed Java code.  (This isn't a 'why isn't the project farther
along' question, but rather a 'that sounds like good technology, where can I
find out more about it' question.)

Thanks, 
Bill Smith

I talked to our build engineer, Josh Lucas.  He managed to get JXR up
and running across some of the Java code from tigris.org.  I saw the
result, and the output looks much like LXR.  He tells me he had to
hack at the source quite a bit to get things working, and that the
current implementation (which uses Castor) is a bit cumbersome.
