> Hi,

> I think it's time to officially decide if we want to standardize on
> 1.5. Some reasons we may want to do this:
>
> * JDK 1.4 is old. 1.5 is mainstream. 1.6 is about to be released.
> * Most libraries have now switched to 1.5 and it's going to be real
> hard to stay on 1.4 if we want to get bug fixes/new features from the
> libraries we use
> * Radu needs to use some google jars for his GSOC and they seem to
> require JDK 1.5
> * We already require 1.5 I believe (although it's a light dependency)
> and have been requiring 1.5 for now several months (> 5 months) and
> we haven't heard complaints from users about this
>
> The vote is about officially dropping support for 1.4 and
> standardizing on 1.5 (and thus allowing us to use the new features of
> the language too like generics, annotations, etc).
>
> Here's my +1
>
> Please cast your votes.
