Sun can EOL JDK 5 (Sun have reached EOL themselves), but JDK 5 will continue to run in many places. JDK 5 is the reference platform because it is the lowest common denominator across platforms. For example, the last time I checked, Java 6 was available but not standard on Mac. There are many organisations running servlet containers under Java 5. As a consequence, Java 5 is our principal build target, and so gets the most love. Java 6 support should be improved, but Java 5 support is critical. Perhaps a parallel JDK 6 Hudson would stimulate improvement? -- Ben Caradoc-Davies <ben.caradoc-dav...@csiro.au> Software Engineer, CSIRO Exploration and Mining Australian Resources Research Centre 26 Dick Perry Ave, Kensington WA 6151, Australia ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensign option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Geotools-devel mailing list Geotools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geotools-devel
