<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font color=black face=Tahoma size=3><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Tahoma'>Hi<br>
<br>
Is there any interest in doing a java-generics release of JDOM?<br>
<br>
I took a bash at doing it and concluded that pushing generics throughout the
codebase was probably too much work, but that it shouldn't be too hard to
simply generify the client-facing code.<br>
<br>
Obviously, this is going to mean that there will be 2 branches of JDOM, but the
existing codebase is currently pretty stable, so that shouldn't be too much of
a problem.<br>
<br>
I'm willing to do the work, but is the maintainer interested in accepting
patches for this?<br>
<br>
Regards, Noel Grandin.<br>
