What do we think about this? I think I can live with JDK 1.2 users
having to compile with a modern compiler. The important thing is that it
runs flawlessly in JDK 1.2 environments. Most JDK 1.2 users are
restrained by their production boxes not their development workstations.
And it's not like they *have* to use the source distribution.

I'd like to do some testing with Jar file built with JDK 1.4 running in
a 1.2 environment. Unless anybody out there is already doing that?

Cheers,
Bill
