Dumb questions...

["Day, Jem BGI WAC" <Je...@barclaysglobal.com>]

Apologies for butting in on the 'dev' group but i couldn't find the answers
to
these questions on the www site...

1. Is there a single source download that incorporates the entire Avalon
    distribution, the Avalon4.0 release only appears to include the
'framework'.

2. Are the instructions for 'cvs' access stated anywhere.

I'd just like to commend you guys/gals for all the thought you've obviously
put into this framework - good job.

As a side issue i noticed that there are a number of threading/concurrent
components
and utilities, did you take a look at Doug Leas 'Concurrent Programming'
utilities...

Not a recent release - no.

Doug Leas work is really good. I guess our package is just for stuff that we 
use internally .... we've talked about dumping it and using that package .. 
nothing happened about it though ;)

Cheers,

Pete
