* Firstly, a simpler higher level API, like the RuleBaseLoader - for dealing with simple cases (a High Level API that compiles and builds in one step). <br>* Secondly - I don&#39;t see why we have to expose the descrs in the normal case - we can just have an api that goes from source to Package binary&nbsp; - make it optional to extract the Descrs. 
<br><br>* Perhaps something like:<br><br>PackageBuilder.addPackageHeader(... stuff for package header... only done once... eg globals, imports... validate it all at this point).<br>PackageBuilder.addRule(... just takes the reader to a single rule...)
<br>PackageBuilder.addDrl(... just takes a reader to a chunk of DRL, but does NOT include the package header? Or if it does, it works jsut as before, merging the package). <br>PackageBuilder.addFunction... <br><br>you get the idea. Its really augmenting it for the repo/individual rule assets/files.
