That's been the plan, but I'm wondering if we might not be better of just going for JSE 5. I do not expect to see anything releasable from trunk until end of 2007, and that should be fine for JSE 5 and later. For example, this would allow us to use annotations to help with assembly, and that would be a pervasive change. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
