Funny you should put this out just now.
I was just about to ask if we needed to start running bootstrap
specifically using JDK 1.5.
I just did a fresh checkout and attempted to build specs via "bootstrap
specs". I'm suspecting that the introduction of the EE 5 specs mean
that we need to start building with JDK 1.5 (in which case failing a
bootstrap for using JDK 1.5 would be a bad thing). However, I haven't
dug into this error yet so it could be something completely different.
Here's the error that I received:
[INFO]

I think we should fail the bootstrap early if using jdk 1.5 as well as
failing the maven build.
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2403
has a patch attached that works, but there might be a way to reuse the
mojo that Jason wrote, not sure...
Thanks,
