If MINA is released with 1.4 and 1.5 support not using retrotranslator, we have to maintain two branches for one release.  Do you mean it?  I have done it before with other projects and it was a real overhead. I think Alex means that Mina 1.0 wouldn't use any 1.5-specific features. BTW it is very strange that nobody responses to my messages about retrotranslator (not retroweaver).  I want to listen to any reason behind all other people's opinions with respect to my opinion. I'm fine with retrotranslater, but only because I wouldn't be using it in any production systems :) I totally understand the concerns of people about using bytecode modification in production systems. -pete --  [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://fotap.org/~osi
