Added answer to question 16

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  What I get is just the content from ${manifest.file}. Any ideas why the nested manifest section isn't getting merged.
  
+ '''Answer #16''' That's not what the options mean.  Including your information in the  {{{<manifest>}}} child node does not add it; it creates a new manifest file.  As a rule, you should use either the {{{manifest}}} attribute '''or''' the {{{<manifest>}}} child node for the {{{<jar>}}} node, but not both.  If you want to merge them, then consider using the current manifest file as a template, with some tokens in it for a filterset.
