Hi Stefan, Ede,

1 - First, many thanks to Ede for the time he spent to polish installers
which will make OpenJUMP much more attractive for many users.

2 - Yes Stefan, we should post some announcement. Slashgeo is the
only one coming to my mind. Also freegis.org has no entry for
OpenJUMP (only an old link from jump to JPP). There may
be some wikipedia articles to update too. Can I let you do the
announcement on slashgeo.

3 - Version. 1.5.1 has been released. I think it is stable and OK for
osgeo-live-dvd. For windows users, Ede made some important
improvements, so it would be good to make a new release before
announcement. I suggest we wait a few more days (end of the week
is OK for me or any other date you and Ede agree with).

4 - Default release. My personnal choice would be to promote CORE
edition : more reliable, faster startup time, simple learning curve,
no native code, no licence issue...
But I understand reasons in favour of the PLUS edition and let you the
final choice. My wish is that we focus on a plugin manager for 1.6 so
that users can download CORE edition and customize it in an easy way.

My 2 cents
