Actually, I was pretty specific about the fact that there are multiple
packages (jars). But the context in which I used the word Avalon was in
reference to what should be a single Community, rather than an association
of developers sharing a CVS repository. When you start dividing the
community around whose jar file is getting gored, then we have a problem.

Yes, from what Peter said, he made an effort in Phoenix to return the right
thing as a runtime issue, and I do appreciate that effort.
The problem, Paul, is that some signatures changed and *THAT* is preventing
compilation. Check the log from Sam Ruby's post, and you'll see. :-)
