Hello Jan!
For the past years, we have used the policy to not provide new versions of
ArgoUML that runs on JRE's no longer supported by Sun (i.e. that EOSL or
EOL). This is allowing us to move forward in step with the oldest
Sun-version. EOL for Java1.4 was the biggest step in this because it meant
that we could start using Generics and Annotations.
