Kim Haase commented on DERBY-6592:
----------------------------------
I just found another out-of-date link on the DITA page,
http://db.apache.org/derby/manuals/dita.html. The 5th bullet links to a chapter
in the 1.1 version of the Subversion docs -- which are now up to version 1.7.
It might be better to make the link go to the top-level
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ and make the text more precise: "more information
is in the Properties section of the Subversion documentation". The section has
moved from Chapter 7 to Chapter 3 over the years, and may continue to migrate.
> Update the version of ant which we tell new developers to use.

> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build tools
> Affects Versions: 10.11.0.0
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
> Attachments: derby-6592-01-aa-updateAntVersion.diff,

> The top level BUILDING.html page tells users to grab ant version 1.7.0 or
> higher. I don't know whether that version still works. I have been using
> version 1.9.2 for a long time. I see no harm in changing the instructions to
> tell new developers to grab ant version 1.9.2. I think it's a good idea to
> update these instructions regularly.
