Thanks for your help,
In addition I would seriously question the use of 2.3 versus 3.1. 2.3 is only receiving security fixes now I believe (not bug fixes) and it is not trivial to update an app from 2.3 to 3. If the app is expected to have a significant life then using 2.3 just because the server is currently geared up for that is surely a questionable decision.
