We can have a build like: ant core, ant clustering, etc... No problem with that. What I'm saying is that if the clustering is broken, we should not have an release. First of all the release requires a SVN tag, and just imagine if someone wishes to create a build for some tagged release, and some 'module' is broken. It's simply confusing.
The tomcat release has a SVN tag - and the release includes all the tomcat files. Cluster and other modules can be broken - and can be released later, with their own SVN release tags. Of course - all stuff must compile at least - but I don't think it's a reasonable requirement to have all modules or other things that are not part of tomcat tested in order to do a release. Costin
