trunk source Java version / autoboxing

Based on the ant properties in trunk it looks like we are building with Java 1.5 in trunk.

I'm assuming use of Java 1.5 language features  is ok (autoboxing, generics, for-each loops) ?

This will mean we have to be a bit more careful than usual merging any fixes from trunk to 3.1 and earlier.

Yes, we have made the move to 1.5.

I don't see why not.

Yes we will, but we still have a check that forces 3.x builds to use
1.4.2 so (hopefully) the compiler will keep us honest.
