[Springframework-developer] Re: Spring Framework 1.1.5 released

[Chris E. <chr...@co...>]

I downloaded spring-1.1.5 and tried to build using maven dist:build. 
The build fails because of missing dependencies:

activemq-1.1
concurrent-1.3.4

I commented those out of project.xml.  Next, the build created jars with 
manifests that have "Implementation-Version: 1.1.3", and the jars are 
named spring...-1.1.3.jar.

Wuh?  Shouldn't that be 1.1.5?
