If we encounter nestmate attributes in a classfile with a version that pre-dates the Nestmate release, do we ignore them completely (as an unknown attribute) or assume they are in fact our nestmate attributes?

I think we need to ignore them for down-rev class files.
That's what we do currently do for attributes like annotations
or generic signatures or bootstrap specifiers.

Thanks John. I went looking for existing examples but for some reason my brain kept reading the JAVA_1_5_VERSION check as if it were JAVA_1_2. TGIF. :)

Cheers,
David
