Richard, I am not a main dom4j developer so really can't speak for it...But I believe an offer of anyone to help a start for a 2.0 would be good, e.g., as a submission within the bug-tracker...

Hi Paul,I see the problem, yet I believe that 1.6.1 is quite a stable release of dom4j for those platforms and people that can't run Java 1.5. Additionally dom4j does not seem to be under active development. So would you see a problem in freezing 1.6.1 as a stable branch allowing only for potential bugfixes and start moving HEAD to Java 1.5, which would mean that after a long time some work is put into the project again?Regards, Richard Am 23.10.2006 um 22:59 schrieb Paul Libbrecht:Hello,allow me my 2p here... "supporting java 1.5" would not be a matter of dom4j 1.5 it would be a full change in API, I think. The same topic has been discussed on the jdom mailing list, which relies a bit more on collections and most have said... well... maybe... but we need to support both. There are still folks, such as me, which wouldn't be *able* to run jdk 1.5. On the Mac, it means an OS upgrade, and I fear it's the same on others.paul Maarten Coene wrote:dom4j is currently not being actively maintained. The main reason is that I don't have the time to do it at the moment (and this won't change in the near future). It should be better if someone else did this job, but no-one has volunteered yet...----- Original Message ---- From: Richard Eckart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: dom4j-dev@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Saturday, October 21, 2006 1:27:35 AM Subject: [dom4j-dev] Is dom4j still maintained? I wonder: is dom4j still maintained. Is there any roadmap for a new release supporting Java 1.5? If not: why? Is there a "better thing" now?------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
