Please have a look at CONNECTORS-203 and vote +1 if you think it's time to move beyond Java 1.4 at the source level, to Java 1.5. I did some work on this over the weekend and managed to convince myself that a migration to a newer Java version will have no obvious ill effects. But I'd like your thoughts.
Especially interesting will be whether or not we try to maintain backwards compatibility in the connector interfaces: IConnector, IRepositoryConnector, IAuthorityConnector, and IOutputConnector. I have some ideas how I could bring these into the modern world in a relatively painless manner, should the community require it. But I'd like to hear your views as to whether we *should* work towards that end, or be willing to disrupt our early adopters in this process. Karl
