Why classic compiler for webapps?

["Shapira, Yoav" <Yo...@mpi.com>]

Hola,
Why were the webapp build scripts setting the compiler to "classic" ?  I
just changed it to modern, and it built fine (on JDK 1.4).  It should
also be OK on JDK 1.3.

The build on JDK 1.4 was generating warnings saying "classic is not
supported on this JDK, upgrading to modern."  So this change got rid of
these warnings.  But I'm curious as to why they were set to "classic"
originally.  ??
