Hi, Projects that use Maven get this for free in the dependency report (and people can just look at the POM). Projects that use Ant might simply direct their users to look in the relevant build script or file (e.g. build.properties). I'm hesitant to have a separate web page just to list

I thought there already was a standard, at least as far as dependencies go: under Project Info...Dependencies? I recall asking about this a few months back and was told all the Commons projects at least used this convention... Maybe this isn't auto-generated? I remember at the time I said I

I've also seen this problem. Last year the question about JDK version compatibility came up on the mailing list -- it turned out that it wasn't really clear even internally. (I think we documented this somewhere as JDK 1.3 for runtime, 1.4 for compiling). But I bet a lot of this is oral

As a quick addendum, it'd be nice to separately specify JDK required for building and JDK required for running. Velocity has a 1.3 runtime and 1.4 compile requirement, I can't remember why off-hand. I think we relaxed the requirements for the test classes to allow them to use JDK 1.4 libraries.
