Hiya John,

Yes you are right.  Both stable (GA) releases of ApacheDS, 1.0 and 1.2,
will be JDK 1.4 compatible.  A jump to JDK 5 is probably a year out.  In
any case, we will make sure we provide 1.4 JDK compatibility with a
living GA branch for Geronimo and JetSpeed.  A JDK 5 minimum requirement
would appear with a 2.0 release of ApacheDS.  Apache 2.0 will not
necessarily kill the latest 1.x branch.

Note that 1.0 is not even released yet.  So in other words, I would not
worry too much .  We still have much work to do.  However I did make a
mistake thinking Geronimo's JEE 5 support was going to be J2SE 5.0
based.  My bad.

Please excuse the confusion,
Alex
