-1 File names. As Oliver already pointed out, the binary files should start with "commons-" prefix and this should also be the directory name in the zip and tar.gz files. The property commons.release.version in the POM still claims 1.3.1. Apart from that I could build successfully from source with my compiler zoo including using the java-1.4 profile on Linux/x64. - Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
