You have a point but there are many shops out there (believe it or not) that are running JVM 1.4 (I worked at one recently).� They do not have the time/money/resources/needs to upgrade.� For Seam apps, 1.5 minimum is obviously required.� This is most likely about supporting as many customers/users as possible.� Our current Seam/EE5 project is running JVM 1.5.� Thank god for annotations, varargs and generics, etc.<br>
<br>On the other hand, it would be nice to "force" shops to upgrade their JRE/JDK to 1.6 as a pre-requisite for JBoss 6...<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Apr 13, 2010 at 7:34 AM, Shervin Asgari <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:shervin.asgari@redpill-linpro.com">shervin.asgari@redpill-linpro.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Just to remind everyone (not sure if this is a problem or not atm ;-) but all Seam modules should be developed using Java 5 unless there is a strong reason to use Java 6. We should used the Hudson jobs to ensure that the code builds with Java 5.<br>

Why? Java 5 is end of life and not any longer supported.<br>
