According to the laws of version numbering, 1.3.1 *is* a 1.3 version, and so is 1.3.0. I assume you are stating that 1.3.0 may not be very useful now that 1.3.1 is out. Well, I just submitted a diff that will upgrade the java/linux-jdk13 port from 1.3.0_02 to 1.3.1, but I already found that 1.3.1 exposed one problem that 1.3.0_02 did not. A newer version is not always better in all situations. Ernst Cedric Berger wrote: > "Koster, K.J." wrote: > > > The usefulness of Linux JDK 1.2.2 is less obvious.
