[BeanUtils] Update to Java 1.5 for next release?
Hi,
I have recently learned that changing the required Java version for a
component does not necessarily affect binary compartibility [1].
I'm thinking about updating [BeanUtils] to Java 1.5. We would have the
following advantages:
- concurrency facilities in java.util.concurrent (could be useful for the
internal caching)
- generics
- JUnit 4
WDYT?
Benedikt

+1 from me, too. It really felt strange when creating patches to adhere
