Ugh. Is this really a requirement for the JARs themselves? The distribution files are named apache-pivot-1.1-incubating.zip/apache-pivot-1.1-incubating.tar.gz, and they will ultimately live in a directory called www.apache.org/dist/incubator/pivot. Appending "-incubating" to the names of all of the JARs contained within the archives as well seems redundant, and it will require updating all of our documentation, including our tutorials and demos which currently include the JARs on their classpath. Niclas, you mentioned at one point that binaries are really just considered a convenience for the end user - if this is true, does it really matter what they are called, as long as they are packaged and distributed in such a way that flags them clearly as "incubating"? Again, not trying to be contrary, but I think that there are valid arguments to be made for leaving the naming structure as-is (assuming that there are no legal implications). Greg
