It was built under 1.4 and the release manager was trusted to have checked that the 1.3 build works. Just in case something odd crept in JDK wise.
I have both built and run tests on 1.3. Just so we are clear, I assume that since we can't practically build [dbcp] on 1.3, I assume it is OK to build it using 1.5, rather than 1.4 as in the previous release. I could cut the release using 1.4, but don't see the value in that. Can anyone else? Thanks for the feedback. Phil
