Well okay I'll fly the flag for platforms like Alpha where a 1.5
compatible JVM/compiler does not exist nor ever will. I know from the
BOF at BOSC there were quite a few people who were reporting a similar
situation.
Now if no one else objects to the JDK1.5. move then I'm not going to fly
the flag for 1.4 since I don't dev any more on Alpha plus I like more
reasons to force people who I work with to upgrade :)

Hello -
No one seemed to object to the idea of officially adopting java 1.5 for
the biojava-live branch.
This would mean ...
biojava-live would require java1.5
generics, unboxing and other language features added in 1.5 will start to
creep into the codebase.
all 'official' and 'preview' releases after biojava1.4 will require JDK1.5
(Java 5).
If you plan to use new versions of biojava on a machine for which there is
or will be no JDK1.5 then you should protest now!
