Niclas,
unlike other projects that may or may not be a part of the ASF, the
Turbine project cares about backward compatibility and our users. If
you would have looked at our code for just a second, you would have
noticed, that there is a profound reason for using
javax.mail.internet.MimeUtility. Hint: The class is called
"OldJavaCrypt".
>I suspect that there are other javamail deps for the same/similar reason.
You are clueless and have no idea. You never ever looked at the code
you are talking about. You are just walking around spreading FUD.
Either look at the code and educate yourself before you speak up or go away.
Regards
Henning

"Fighting for one's political stand is an honorable action, but re-
fusing to acknowledge that there might be weaknesses in one's
position - in order to identify them so that they can be remedied -
is a large enough problem with the Open Source movement that it
deserves to be on this list of the top five problems."
