building does not need to use ${user.home} and it should not do so
------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DERBY-1526
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1526
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build tools
            Reporter: Ray Kiddy
            Priority: Minor



I think it is problemmatic that the Derby build process makes use of, for 
example, ${user.home}/ant.properties.

I would actually like to be able to build multiple versions of Derby. I also 
cannot see what is gained by relying on the user's home directory in this 
manner. All of this information could be put into a configuration that can be 
kept in the project directory. That would work just fine.

By the way, I am looking at the top-of-tree code. How do I refer to that in the 
"Affects Version" box above? This version is 422938.

thanx - ray
