You just point out a serious issue ;-) . The RI is just a concept, in fact we have many RIs, Sun's JDK, BEA's JDK, even different versions, Sun JDK 1.5.0, 1.5.0.04, 1.5.0.06...(even more in future I expects), and on different platforms(win32, linux32, still even more in future)...In fact sometimes they have different behavior themselves, it is very reasonable that 1.5.06 fix some bugs of 1.5.0, so that some different exceptions thrown(more reasonable IAE instead of NPE, for example), or more seriously, different results returned... Samples are available upon request:).

Actually, there only is one RI for any given spec, and in this case, I guess we judge it to be the latest version of a spec that comes from Sun? (The question isn't if it comes from Sun - as the spec lead, they supply the RI - but rather what version...)
Yes, I agree with you, there should be only one RI. And I suggest to stick with Sun's 1.5.0 with latest revision (i.e. 1.5.0_06 by now).
