Hi folks,
How do you guys feel about switching the minimum run time requirement
for ActiveMQ 4.2 to be Java 5?? I'm itching to do this since Java 5
has a much better set of concurrent implementation.
We can keep the 4.1.x branch alive as the Java 1.4 compatible version.
Also I have a feeling that once we switch to Java 5, someone will
figure out how to use retrotranslator to make our Java 5 binaries also
run on Java 1.4. But I doubt anybody will make any efforts to look
into that until we actually jump to Java 5.
Rather big move for a minor version - why not call it ActiveMQ 5 instead
(It'll even align!).
Then keep ActiveMQ 4.x on 1.4.
Regards,
Endre.
