Seems to be cheating to me. AIUI, this is intended to be an M2 release, and is supposed to be targetted at 1.4+ - yet it's not possible to regenerate the build using Java 1.4 and M2. I know this affects a lot of Commons projects - all the more reason for the M2 bug to be sorted... > > -Rahul > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
