Michael, Thank you for the feedback. When you get time, drop me a short e-mail and let me know what you are working on these days.
You wrote: "it would be nice to release a last java 5 compatible version (1.3.2 ?) before switching to java 6." I have no problem with this, but I would leave the final decision up to Stefan. I'll see if I can figure out a way to run OpenJUMP with an older Java 5 JDK. You wrote: "I think that a good priority list could be : - bug fixes - raster support (don't know if there are blocking issues as I don't use it much) - (if next version of JTS is released soon, synchronize both releases - and drop the workaround we had to do in OJ)" I'm going to focus on my bug fixes for now. If I have time, I'll look at the JTS hack we implemented. I already printed out that string of e-mails for some bedtime reading. But I want to avoid biting off more than I can chew in two months. You wrote: "If your plugins are independant from the core, maybe it should not be a constraint for a OJ release date. Or do you need some modifications in the core to release your plugins ?" My plug-ins do not depend on mods to the core. I could release my ported plug-ins now, but I thought it would be nice to time the release with an OpenJUMP release. This is similar to the way some of the Eclipse projects work together. I won't be hijacking the OpenJUMP release in any way. I'll just release my ported plug-ins from my own SourceForge page on the same day. I thought it would be a nice touch to have the extra functionality of my plug-ins for the new release, but it isn't that important. If Stefan and Larry have no objections, I'll get a wiki page up so we can track the work on the next release.
