Hi,

I just wanna start to evaluate the Portal, but unfortunately there is no way, to
get it compiled and thus to test :(. Digging around, I saw, that the build 
system enforces 
target 1.2 and source 1.3 ! 

Why?  I thought, this is a new major release ? Are there any reasons, why you 
force
people and yourself to outdated (antique) Java versions? 

IMHO since it is (at least according to announcements) a complete rewrite of 
Nukes,
why are you not using all the nice features comming with tiger aka JDK 1.5 and
really get rid of the old limitations ?

Even JBoss AS compiles with 1.5 without any problems (ok, sometimes target 1.4
is used - I guess because of unfixed thirdparty software - however, that's 
still better
than the other ancient stuff) ....

BTW2: Is there any reason to force people to use the outdated version of ant ? 
Or is
 this just introduced due to the  scary/limited build system used ?

Regards,
jens.
