I'm working with the trunk checkout of pool and made the tarball such that if you just extract it in the src/ dir it will expand next to the existing sources and you can use the existing ant build file like you normally would. See the package overview page for a decent description of how the composite object pool works: http://sandy.mcarthur.org/pool/Pool-Private/org/mcarthur/sandy/commons/pool/composite/package-summary.html#package_description > i'm sure you're aware of all these issues but it's important to the ASF > that our code base is clean legally. so, before we can accept such any > substantial contribution we need some legal paperwork from you.

Nope.
