I'm still confused why we have to go through this again. You should be able to build all of the components by using the -source.jar's that are provided. They contain what is necessary i.e., the full source. regards, Karl On Thu, Nov 17, 2011 at 2:30 PM, sebb wrote: > On 17 November 2011 12:29, Karl Pauls wrote: >> I'm not sure what this has to do with the graduation vote.
