This confuses me. Doesn't the fact that since the code will no longer run on
a pre-1.5 JDK mean that compatibility is broken, even if not a single line
of code changes? (Yes - I know that we technically only release source so in
that case it could be recompiled, but I work with Maven). In any case, I
expect that the code will only compile with a 1.5 compiler anyway.


Just because the new Commons Lang is compiled against 1.5 doesn't mean
that older code that depends on it won't be able to use it.

It does if that older code is trying to run in a 1.4 or 1.3 JVM.
