+Java 5 in Plugins and Components
+
+ When you want to start using Java 5 features in a plugin, or shared
component,
+ this process must be used as decided by the Maven PMC.
+
+ A plugin can start using Java 5 features and/or dependencies when the need
+ arises, but if there are issues that have been fixed but not released yet,
+ the current trunk of the plugin must be released first, targeting Java 1.4.
+ In the announcement for that last Java 1.4 version of the plugin, we inform
+ the users that this is the last version that will be able to run on Java 1.4.
+
+ When a plugin, or other component, decides to switch to Java 5, you should
use
+ the description field in JIRA to label the versions for the plugin, so that
it
+ is clear which version runs on which version of Java. See
+
{{{http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGES#selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project%3Aversions-panel}Maven
Changes Plugin}}
+ for an example.
