Managing versioned resources

I have been working on a system to do all the tedious activities involved in maintaining a WebStart application with versioned resources. What I propose does not depend on any particular build system (although it could be wrapped/invoked by them). Given the resources and jnlp file(s) it will compare them with the existing content of a repository (the download area), assign versions to new resources, add version entries to jar files, sign and pack them (if required), and update the version.xml files.
I have some preliminary documentation here http://www.thornton.dyndns.org/mark/Java/Repository/com/optrak/tools/repository/package-summary.html#package_description
