[jdom-interest] Opinion Poll: - JDOM2 and minimum-required Java - Java5 or Java6

[Rolf Lear]

I should add a time-line here.

I think I will sit on this for a couple of weeks... Say Friday the 18th - 
three weeks.

At that point I will summarize all the responses... and between now and
then I will also see if I can come up with a more detailed list of what the
implications for supporting Java5 are...

Then we can make a more informed decision.

A third option would be to only officially support Java6, but also put
together a document on how to make it work with Java5.
