Hi Pavel, thanks very much for your response.
I did use the sample as the starting point, ran the test suite and
examined the code - thank you.
Thanks for your explanation, I understand the ServiceFinder process now,
that is neat.
For some reason - not entirely sure, but probably maven module -SNAPSHOT
"install" related - the contrib FreemarkerViewProcessor is now working
as expected.
In any case, thanks for your help.
Regards
rob
