So, would any new features and bug fixes for 1.1 have to be released as 1.1.x for the Java 5 folks' sake? I think this is somewhat of a moot point, since there are fewer and fewer people using Java 5 these days (even my company is on Java 6 surprisingly). I'm all about charging forward. I just don't want to paint ourselves in a corner. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
