*Q:* Little request: Can we PLEASE have a single javadoc tree for all commons components?  
I am getting tired of switching between dbcp, loggin, and pool.  
Especially when I am following one line of calls or inheritance.  
Thanks, Angus

*A:* Sure, it should be relatively easy, why not take some initiative and do it yourself?
