[Laszlo-dev] Re: Patch to use JDOM-1.0-CVS

[Henry Minsky]

I sent a note to the JDOM developers but did not get any response. I have
been running with the JDOM library from their CVS tree, and it works on all
the examples I have compiled and run.

I would be inclined to grab a snapshot of the current CVS version of JDOM
and ship it in LPS, until their next official release.
