[izpack-devel] mutually exclusive packs

[Bartz, Klaus]

Hi,
sounds good...
If you are working at or done the local work you know, that
it is a little bit work to loop through the xml entry to the
installation and process the new feature in the PacksModel.
But this will be not the only work...
If you read frequently the IzPack mail lists you know that
we have sometimes problems with the docu. Therefore, a new
feature needs adaption of the docu. Fabrice tries to hold the
docu clean, but you can make the live a little bit easier for
him if you adapt your portion.
An other part is the DTD. If needed, I can adapt it.

Cheers

Klaus
