JBoss/Hibernate tools includes the official release of Hibernate tools 
so it is not "some" build, it is *the* build.

hibernate-tools just like hibernate for ages just includes a version 
class that prints the info :)

jboss.org seem to be sloooow today)

The latest binary is distributed in hibernate tools as it's been for 
years now.

tools.hibernate.org wasn't updated because the latest update happend 
smack in the middle of the downtime...
i'm releasing a new today and i'll get the hibernate.org page uptodate.

Hibernate Tools never been a maven build nor been in Maven and still 
Seam used it before ;)

If it works fine then great, but I would definitely like it to be 
upgraded if possible :)

p.s. I know that hibernate tools should move to maven or at least 
publish to maven repository but
it's just not been possible to do yet because I haven't found a way to 
work with Maven on the testsuite of
hibernate tools - it's on the top of my todo list, but if anyone out 
there got time to spare then I'm all
ears for patches on getting hibernate tools "mavenized"...
