We are actually using 1.5 too. My concern is that when someone makes
changes to the core, they have to make sure they didn't break the code,
this includes all of the contrib modules, which _could_ mean that I need
more than just 1.4 and 1.5 to build and test the core and contrib
areas. I just think it could get out of hand. The system requirements
document could get too complicated.
I am all for moving to 1.5; I am not in favor of letting the contrib
package range freely over whatever JVM version is available.

I use 1.5 JVM since 1.5 years building 1.4 and 1.5 projects which
works perfect. But if you are afraid of the management you could still
modify your local build process to set JAVA_HOME variables during
build.
Multiple JVM on a system should not be a problem AFAIK.
Won't that solve the problem?!

Would this mean that people checking out Lucene source (especially the
core) could possibly need 2 or more JDKs on their machines in order to
do a build? I know it is would be automated through the build scripts,
but it seems like _it could_ degenerate into a management nightmare.
What if people require specific JVM minor releases do to JVM bug fixes
or if they require 1.6?
