Hi all,

I'm a little confused about what JDK level we said we'd use for e4 work. 

In the former e4-incubator mail list [1] we said, "We'll discuss at the 
summit".  In the summit notes I see lots of discussion [2] but no 
conclusion.  I was not in that session, so perhaps there was a conclusion 
that I missed/was missed in the notes?

In doing the recent CSS work I set the dependency as JDK1.5 because that's 
what I saw in the following projects:
org.eclipse.e4.ui.services
org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench

Many would like 1.5 for various reasons (myself included), but as in the 
email below, those in the embedded space would naturally like something 
more like Foundation 1.1.

We need a definitive answer to avoid costly reworking of code to a lower 
JDK level.

Regards,
Kevin

Subject
[e4-dev] The targets for CSS Engine






 I have been trying to get the existing code working with the eRCP
runtime. The good news is after a few hours of hacking and commenting
I was able to get it working. I am now wondering what are the platform
targets for the CSS engine. We can possibly help with the existing
code base to complete it and make it compatible with CDC FP 1.1
(better yet CLCD 1.1 ) also add eSWT and eJface support. Are those
things in the interest and target of the css related work?
