it'd really be a new version. mostly the same, just enhanced for
java5 :)
Shouldn't this be going into a non-bug fix branch. 1.0 is sealed now
in terms of the API. All that should happen are bug fixes with 1.0.x
right?
Am I missing something here?
Yes, this will be a separate branch from 1.0, as to not disturb the 1.0
release.
This will be API compatible with 1.0, but no usage of backport, and
tweaking internals to make better use of what Java5 offers.
Since the trunk has some divergent API changes atm, I thought that a
java-5-ized 1.0-api-compatible version would be of use to the community
at large while the next big release is baking.
What branch would this be? What would be the first release of this be?
Asking because we have to avoid confusion with the 1.0.x releases.
