+1/-1 I am all for using jdk 1.5, but I guess it will take some time before I can use this jdk at work. Is it possible and easy to generate an 1.4 compatible binary version from 1.5 sources ? If so, I'd say go for it.
Just some additional thoughts (maybe they should be in another thread): - when considering package names, maybe it is an idea to work towards a plugin-alike structuring. It might be interesting if future development of some configuration format (INI,JNDI,etc) could be independent from, say, core components. - I think some prototype ui components (swing,jsp,etc.) might be a useful future addition, if only as a starting point for developing really useable ui components (and probably also as a teaser for new users), so you might want to consider that when considering package names as well.
