I would go for the advanced one, I would also like us to have the best
support for java 1.5
by including xerces and ecluding the collections backport.

Perhaps I can write a webstart app so that rmmci is actualy used somewhere?

I agree.

Its a shame I did not spend much time with mmbase 1.8
perhaps its enough if people that already use it state there comments
-did you create new data types?
-did you migrate from mmbase 1.7
-have you ruun mmbase 1.8 clustered?

is that a small mmbase server?
