so far: pro: 1. Code readability
2. Faster contribs (as many of active developers moved to it allready) 3. "moving forward effect" as sooner or later it will be the same argument for 1.6, 1.7... good feeling to stay close 4. Some performance boost not only from better hotspot, but from new jvm features (eg. StringBuilder for Analyzers, new/better sync features can be used like atomics...) 5. coding efficiency in general better contra: 1. GCJ users as so far nobody with jvm complained 2. Patching (bug fixes...), can this be dealt with by branching/tagging in svm? Ususally not major refactorings, just bug fixes? Is that all to be considered? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
