Ok, I get your point and I'm not going to force it, but I don't agree people still running 1.5 should be able to compile from sources. I mean: 1.5 has been dead for a longer while now; the same argument could be made for java 1.4 or whatever most recent version has been ported to amigaos... There are 1.6-compatible VMs from all major vendors. Really -- if you're still using java 1.5 you're a fossil and should consider switching to 1.6 (if not for anything else, then for performance reasons). This said, I'm fine with 1.5 source-level compatibility, doesn't bother me that much.
