Name in META-INF/manifest.mf in all poi jars seems invalid. manifest.mf files are all saying : Name: common Specification-Title: Jakarta POI Specification-Version: 3.0-rc4-20070503 Specification-Vendor: Apache Implementation-Title: Jakarta POI Implementation-Version: 3.0-rc4-20070503 Implementation-Vendor: Apache I think it should be Name : org/apache/poi/ 'common' does not mean anything for poi jars.
I don't think we need the section entry at all, and it looks like we only had it because someone cut and pasted it from the ant documentation as a template. I have remove the section entry, so all of the metadata is now in the main section, so applies to the whole of the jar (assuming I've read the jar spec properly)
Based on javamail or ojdbc14, it seems ok to me.
