OK, I see your point -- though I personally prefer the version number
to be stored elsewhere than the name of the file, so revving the
version doesn't break all scripts that refer to it. (Imagine if
installing perl 5 made all scripts that start with #!/usr/bin/perl
break until they were individually changed to #/usr/bin/perl5 (and I
mean after perl 5 was pronounced stable).)
Do you have a position on including a jakarta-regexp.jar (or a
jakarta-regexp-1.2.jar or a jakarta-regexp-1.3-dev.jar) directly in
jakarta-tomcat-4.0/lib so we can build it without synching and
building jakarta-regexp?
Likewise for servlet.jar / jakarta-servletapi-4.
Note that the project already contains an ant.jar and a jaxp.jar and
crimson.jar, and that works just fine :-)

Yeah, mine and everyone else's in the world who wants to build it.
One less step is one less step that can go wrong.
