Fine with me. I'd like to keep 1.6 compatible to JDK 1.1, though. When we make 1.2 a requirement, we'd better start using collections and URLClassloader consistently - and doing this for 1.6 would push 1.6 even further down the timeline. > 2.

But I've nagged Steve about it and promise to fix it during the next few weeks. 8-) Stefan
