Move forward or die. If you are stuck on 1.5, you can continue to use a full stack that is already supported. I am so sick of hearing people complain that they will be broken if a JDK migration to a newer version is undertaken. No, you are not broken, you simply can not upgrade. There is a huge difference between being broken and not having an upgrade path. Should we ensure that Apache Maven can fit on a 1.4mb floppy disk, also?? I mean, we're breaking everyone that runs Apache Maven on a networkless machine without any USB drive and has to use 1.4mb floppies to transfer Maven Central, etc. This form of anti-migration argument has less value than a "without any requirement" argument for not migrating. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
