We have used Weblogic 6.0 as well, and the parsers ARE incompatible.
I would ask questions on this list first as well. The BEA list does
not have as many active people.
One thing (One BEA person to another) is to be VERY careful of the ant
that is included with Weblogic 6.1. The startup batch file has a bug
in how it handles command line arguments.
