I worked over the past weeks on an extension to the excalibur sourceresolve stuff (I named it jnet for now) which makes all SourceFactories available through the java.net.URL class. But unfortunately this requires that we use valid URLs for our custom protocols as well which I think is not always the case. Carsten -- Carsten Ziegeler [EMAIL PROTECTED]
