historical question

[Ranko Bijelonic <rb...@marketaxess.com>]

Someone really needs to clean up the javadocs (and other documentation).
Every package and every class is deprecated.  Not only is everything
deprecated, but it is deprecated for different reasons and at different
points in the development of Avalon and its related projects.  Anyone new,
who is not thoroughly familiar with the history of the project(s), really
has no chance of understanding what Avalon is about.  Even someone who used
Avalon (with Phoenix) and then went away for a while, has no chance of
digesting the current state of things.

Agreed.

If you have any suggestions, perhaps you could contribute to the wiki. 
Even a page that lists your thoughts on what should or shouldn't be 
included in the website would be appreciated.

The wiki is at: http://wiki.apache.org/excalibur .  You'll need to 
create a profile to make edits.

Thanks.
