I'm aware. There is also the problem of our release tracking, we have nothing but apr versions there. I understood there is a mass-export-import facility which I'll look into, but basically "1.7.0" and prior all need to become "apr-1.7.0" etc, and then we need to import all the historical apr-util-* apr-iconv-* sets. Before the next release, we aught to split Announcement-x.x.x into distinct files for the apr, apr-util and apr-iconv groups. As of 2.0.0 these all merge up, but in the interim... > I know you're keen to get an APR-UTIL update released reasonably soon, and > I > promise to tackle at least the XML issues I've been working on when I get > back home - > which I anticipate being second half of next week.

Since I started thinking about it, I'm wondering whether we should push towards apr-util-1.7.0, or just get to apr-2.0.0 already. Other thoughts or observations?
