Folks,

DBCP seems to have been fairly quiet for a while. In recent days I have hit
/ seen others hit various issues including:
- DBCP doesn't build on a 1.6 JVM
- Tomcat 5/6 can't build on a 1.6 JVM because it depends on building DBCP
- Tomcat trunk (the basis for 7) requires building on a 1.6 JVM
- One of the major reasons Gump builds on a 1.5 JVM is DBCP

Putting to one side that the root cause is incompatible changes in the JDK
(grr) there is a patch in Jira (DBCP-191) to address this issue.

I'd like to at least get these changes into svn with the intention of moving
towards a DBCP (1.3?) release.

Any objections or anything I need to be aware of before I start work?
+1 as in will help. Closing all issues may require a pool release, which I am also willing to help with. Trunk includes some significant enhancements (managed connections) and behavior changes (repeated close is a no-op), so a release from trunk should be 1.3. I have thought about backporting fixes (especially DBCP-270, the fix for which may resolve some case of DBCP-44) to get a 1.2.3 out while working on 1.3. I am OK pushing forward directly to 1.3, but given severity of these issues and assuming we may drop 1.4 support, it may be best to push out a 1.2.3 to address them.
