And Owen feels strongly that the current behavior protects us against real 
hazards.  He's had clusters that only partially upgraded and encountered 
unexpected difficult to diagnose problems.  We need to reach a consensus.  So 
the question is not whether this is the way you would implement this in a 
vacuum, but whether this is a solution that we can all agree to.  Do you have 
an alternate proposal that you prefer that Owen might support?  If not, can you 
live with the solution I suggested?

> At start time, TT checks whether its version is compatible with JT.
> The condition is too restrictive. 
> It will shut down itself if one of the following conditions fail:
> * the version numbers must match
> * the revision numbers must match
> * the user ids who build the jar must match
> * the build times must match
> I think it should check the major part of the version numbers only (thus any 
> version like 0.19.xxxx should be compatible).
