    Hello,

    Can you tell me what I need to build Spring from the source code? It does not appear that an ant build file is included in the distribution and it does not seem that all dependencies are resolved by the jars in the lib directory.

    Thank you,
    Whitney Hunter

      Whitney,

      If you want to build Spring from source, you currently need to grab a CVS snapshot. We have quite a lot of optional third-party dependencies, so we didn't want to ship all of them initially.

      Nevertheless, we plan to offer two releases as of 1.0 M4: a slim one with just the minimal third-party libs (~7.5 MB), and a full one with all libs that are needed for building (>14 MB).

      Juergen
