I haven't thought of that. I guess I am used too much to end-to-end build processes which I can start from scratch for maximum repeatability. Of course this is a good reason why the Ant build for 3.x puts compiled classes into the same location as the Maven build. >> Well, there goes one remote idea.

I am still missing several important pieces for building HttpClient 3.x at release quality. The idea is to add those pieces one by one over the next months. If I get everything together by christmas (Gregorian) and nobody else has volunteered as RM until then, I will most likely do it as a once-only effort in early January. Just to get that monkey off our back. cheers, Roland --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
