Honestly, I only wanted to make public what I believe is the case anyway. Whether the branch is alive or not pnly depends on whether people push changes to it. While preparing the last 1.9.x release I realized there have been almost no changes since the last release - and we've had an additional 1.10.x release without a new 1.9.x release in between. To me it looks as if the branch wasn't really alive anyway. > Personally, I think it's a mistake to abondon the Java 5 support.
