What about requiring jdk1.5 or higher for both building and running
for the next release made off of trunk?

Would this involve abandoning support for small devices? I think that
CDC is still based on the 1.4 platform.

I would like to start writing Derby code which makes use of Java 5
features. More specifically:
1) I would like to take advantage of the Java 5 extensions for
ease-of-use and stronger type checking.
2) I would like to be able to write regression tests which verify
that user-written Java 5 code runs correctly as Derby functions and
procedures.
Would anyone object to our requiring that developers use a Java 5 or
later compiler to build Derby? I believe that we would still require
the presence of the 1.4 libraries and the expectation would continue
to be that the compiler must compile down to 1.4 classes.
