Wow, David - remember when we first talked about this? I think this
was exactly a year in the making.
Unbelievable--I think we owe an especially big thanks to Jacopo for
all the time he spent reviewing past contributors and to David Jones
for his work on the transaction manager switch to Geronimo, which
worked without a single problem, and of course the support of
everybody in this group.
