What do we do with DBCP? a) There will be a new release in Apache Commons b) Require "patch" tool as prerequisite (It needs to be explicitly installed and configured on Windows) https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54522 c) Make DBCP optional, e.g. introduce "skip.dbcp" property like existing "skip.installer" one. d) Drop DBCP pool I am currently using a variant of "c)" by setting "no.build.dbcp=true" (thus fooling an up-to-date check), but an explicit and documented property would be better.
