BUILDING
========
In order successfully complete these build instructions you must have:
* git
* ant >= 1.7.1
* java development kit (JDK) >= 1.5

To obtain and build the source code enter the following commands:
    git clone git://github.com/keithshep/pub-array.git
    cd pub-array
    git submodule init
    git submodule update
    ant

After the build completes you will have a full JNLP distribution built under:
    ./modules/pub-array-builder/web-dist

Assuming you have a bash shell you should also be able to run from the
command-line (without bothering with a JNLP install) by doing:
    cd modules/pub-array-builder
    ./run-builder.bash

The drawback to using the ./run-builder.bash script is that help screens
will not be available to you since they depend on JNLP APIs to work.

CONTRIBUTING
============
PubArray is open sourced and we welcome contributions. It is probably a good
idea to get in contact with us if you intend to make a contribution so that we
can coordinate and advise you on whether or not we think we will be able to
