Missing XPL files from 3.7 nightly

pappleby
I'm fairly new to Orbeon so hopefully somebody can explain what has been going on ...

I've been using version 3.7 of Orbeon quite happily all week. I've now reached the point where I need to alter the epilogue.xpl file. So I looked for the file ... nowhere to be found (and neither were the other epilogue files).

I thought I would download 3.6 and see if they were in that download - and unsurprisingly they were.

Which leads me to two questions ...

1) Can I use the files from 3.6 in the 3.7 version
2) How is 3.7 functioning without the files being present?

Thanks

Paul

Most likely this won't work.

Magic ;-)

These files are now in orbeon-resources-private.jar. The idea is that  
most people don't want to configure the epilogue very much. So we  
introduced some properties (see properties.xml) to configure basic  
features (theme stylesheet, in particular), and hope the rest of the  
epilogue can remain standard.

If you want to modify it, you can extract it from orbeon-resources-
private.jar and put the file into WEB-INF/resources/config.
