We'd really like to upgrade since there are so many benefits to the 1.4 line, but we don't want to risk failures on live systems. I've been using 1.4.1-p3 on my workstation for many months now with only one minor problem (compiling JSPs sometimes causes the compiler to hang). I'm curious to know what other people's experiences and opinions are in using 1.4.x for production use. -- Milo Hyson CyberLife Labs
