I agree we should make a firm decision and either enforce 1.4 or fully
exploit 1.5. Originally the client was developed with a view to
supporting 1.4 - I *believe* that it may now have one or two small
dependencies on 1.5 though I can't be sure that I remember correctly.

Hi Carl, I feel like we need to nail this down firmer than that. If we
want to support clients at 1.4, for example, then that's a stake in the
ground that has to be enforced by all qpid developers as it has a
variety of implications on the implementation. We'd have to make sure
that any parts of the code required for clients always remained at 1.4
and used only 1.4-compatible versions of underlying libraries, which
implies that the qpid common code all has to be 1.4 as well.
Personally, I think we should just say 1.5 across the board.

Java 1.5 or 1.6 for broker.
For clients 1.4 might be good to also support.

Does Qpid mandate Java 5? The reason I ask is that I had some code
checking turned on in my maven work and saw a ton of warnings about
unchecked calls to collections classes. If we mandate 1.5, should we
turn on such checking so we can make the code cleaner?
