Author Minumum/recommended J2SE version for Apache DS

Hi all!

Currently I finish the ApacheDS paragraph in the 2dn edition of my LDAP
little German book for Java developers
(http://www.entwickler.com/buecher/ldap/, 1st edition), and I asked
myself, which J2SE is minumum for running the server. Due to new IO I
would guess it is 1.4, and I successfully started the server on that
version. The Mina Wiki states SSL support uses 1.5 functionality
(javax.net.ssl.SSLEngine), which would lead to a higher version
reqirement, if we would support ldaps that way.

What should I tell my readers? Take into account, that the book, once
printed, can't be changed. So if think JSE 5 will be mandatory in the
medium term, it is also an option just to say "it needs J(2)SE".

Thanks in advance for a statement here,
Stefan

Tell them for LDAP they need 1.4 at a bare minimum. For LDAPS they will
need 1.5.
