Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-6213:
--------------------------------------

Hi Knut,

I have a slight reservation that we are losing airtight confidence that the 
deprecated DataSources behave correctly, because we won't be testing them 
directly anymore and will instead just rely on the fact that the deprecated 
DataSources extend tested DataSources. But I think that there is only a small 
chance that we will mess this up accidentally. +1

Thanks,
-Rick

> The developer community has approved the proposal to sunset support for Java 
> 5 and CDC: 
> http://apache-database.10148.n7.nabble.com/VOTE-Sunsetting-support-for-Java-5-and-CDC-td129832.html#a129925
> This issue tracks a number of tasks needed to implement this proposal:
> I) Remove build support for Java 5 and CDC.
> II) Purge user doc references to Java 5, CDC, and the JDBC 4 DataSources.
> III) Remove the JDBC 4 version of the public api from the published javadoc. 
> The recently introduced CP2 DataSources would need to migrate to the JDBC 3 
> version of the published javadoc. The JDBC 4 versions of the DataSources 
> would still exist, but they would be vacuous extensions of their JDBC 3 
> counterparts.
> IV) On the wiki, document our expectation that maintenance releases will 
> support the same platforms as the original feature release cut from their 
> branch.
> V) Decide what to do with the SimpleMobileApp. Probably we want to just 
> remove this demo since its purpose is to show how to run Derby on the 
> deprecated CDC platform.
