Re: [Jython-dev] Jython 2.7.2rc1

Thanks for testing those combinations, James. I was not as thorough with 
my Linux test.

When I'm using others' JARs, I usually find this is the page I want, 
with the next stop being "Browse" to get the JAR, the source and the 
checksum. If you're just citing it as a dependency, this page is good as 
it gives you fragments to paste.
