After some entertaining code-archaeology using svn and list archives, it looks to me like the earliest code in commons pool really originated in 2001, in a proposed contribution to struts by Rodney Waldhoff [1]. While there was database connection pooling code in both struts and turbine prior to that time, the code that forms the basis for [pool] appears to have been contributed by Rodney around the time that Commons was being formed.

Assuming I have the history correct (please anyone correct me if I have it wrong), this means that the "1999" start date for the copyright in NOTICE.txt for pool should be changed to 2001. Does anyone have any objections to this change?
