I think that the validate-jars/check-jars task should *not* be optional. The only reason that it might fail and bust the build is if the committer who added the new jar did not describe it properly (or did not do a build before committing). The reason for this task is to ensure a solid build. > almost forgot! :) (If I don't tick anybody off soon - the vote is still > going on) Well now you can "tick people off" to your heart's content.
