Great!


Glad to know there is no fundamental problem with Ibatis and JayBird.

The change in Tomcat 5.5.x confused a lot of people, but is much better
in the long run.

As for reporting problems in Yahoo groups. I don't have a clue. I've
had problems from time to time with Yahoo too.
When I reported to their tech support I got no reply.
