There has been a lot of discussion on Java 5 support for Struts
Action 2, and from my reading of the comments, we have settled on a
path, but I want to formalize it in a vote to ensure we are all on
the same page.
I vote we develop Struts Action 2 with Java 5, taking advantage of
it where ever we can. At the same time, we should use Retroweaver
to build jars that will run in a 1.4 JVM. For those that aren't
familiar, Retroweaver supports conversion of an impressive amount
of Java 5 features and language changes. In summary, Retroweaver
supports [1]:
* generics
* extended for loops
* static imports
* autoboxing/unboxing
* varargs
* enumerations
* annotations
Therefore, our development philosophy will be to take _full_
advantage of Java 5, but provide a working jar for Java 1.4,
however, we can't guarantee every Struts Action 2.0 feature will be
available to Java 1.4 users.

I'll tally the votes after at least 72 hours and include the count
in our STATUS file. The vote is open to anyone.
