[At the request of Remy Maucherat, I'm sending this to the developer list; I
asked on slide-user first.]
I've been playing around with some web technologies that I'm not as familiar
with, and I have been trying to set up Slide 1.0M6 on my machine, which is
running Java 1.1.8 (in particular, Apple's Mac Runtime for Java 2.2.4). However,
that distribution seems to require Java 2.
I did the following:
- installed Tomcat 3.2.1 (all the examples work fine)
- unpacked Slide 1.0M6, and dropped the WAR files into Tomcat's webapps
directory
- started up Tomcat
And I got the following log output as it tried to bring up Slide:

----------
That first exception shows that Slide is trying to use at least one of the
methods of java.util.Hashtable that only exists in Java 2 (since that's where
the collections classes appeared). Since I'm lead to believe that Slide "should
be" compatible with Java 1.1, this is a bug.
