-1. I wouldn't want the default to change. A lot of people still run App servers that require Java4 and won't run on Java5. Once Java4 is fully end-of-lifed, then I wouldn't complain if it was altered.
Auto-detection based on JAVA_HOME would be a more palatable solution. Cheers, James On 03/05/07, Brendan Donovan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Maybe the default setting for maven shoudl be moved from 1.3 (I think?) to 1.5 after all it is a development tool and I think at this stage most development is done under 1.5. It would just make it an easier experience for new users of maven and preclude them having to ask this question on the forum. Also surely when you specify your JAVA_HOME it could infer the version and make it the default for you installation.
