  Doesn't work very well yet :-)
  
  The code needs to be cleaned up, and the core processing should not
  be tied to ant though I used a task for now to get things going.
  
  Once the DTDs for projects and the like are codified things should be
  a bit easier. I don't know how to quite translate some of values
  in the descriptors now but that will be resolved in further DTD
  discussions with Sam.
  
  My use of the digester may not be ideal. I decided to use a tool that
  exists and has proven to be quite nifty. But I am a digester newbie
  and some of the rules I've made to process the XML may not be ideal.
  I would also like to generate beans and digester rules based on a DTD
  so that the maintance of the object model employed here is as easy
  as possible.
  
  Over the next few days things will get into shape. The only thing
  happens now is the processing of the object model and the generation
  of a build.xml file that can checkout repositories, but it can build
  anything yet. And there's a bootstrap ant issue to deal with :-)
