It would be a very welcome improvement to be able to automatically publish an EPF library configuration from e.g. Hudson.

Although I do see some bugs reported on this already, it remains unclear if this is actually supported and how this works.

Two suggestions for this automation are:

1. save the publication options together with the library configuration (reported via another bug);

2. have some simple EPF commandline options to publish a library configuration, e.g. EPF -c <pathtoconfig>. Obviously this needs to tie in with the existing command line options, and I leave the details of the commandline scheme to the developer.

IBM Rational Method Composer (RMC) that is based on EPF composer does have all the above as requested. Is it possible for you to look at that choice for now? Of course, I understand that EPF composer is an open source tool while RMC is a commercial one.

Thanks very much.
