Dan, That's not how releases are done. Release has a very specific meaning at Apache, which means that the project has voted to release a version, and thus it's being done by the ASF as an entity, rather than by an individual. We'll talk about this more as we get further along. If you

2005-10-19 Thread Rodrigo Kumpera
I've found a small issue while building under cygwin. I'm using j2sdk 1.4 and gcc 3.4.4 (cygwin). The problems are when building the jni stuff. First it included on gcc find patch "j2sdk\include\cygwin", but it should be "j2sdk\include\win32". Second is when building the included file "jni_md.h"
