I intend to finish off the generating the java file generation from the properties during the holidays. So please review and let me know, what classpath information I need to use for the plugins any anything else you feel is important. You had mentioned about using maven. so with regards to that, do you want pom.xml to be part of the generated sources from the template. If so, if you can provide me with a template pom.xml to be used as part of the template.
