Darina,

While I understand the motivation in using Java 1.5, have you
thought about providing a Java 1.4.x compatible version? There
are a vast number of people who are still with versions prior
to 1.5, and probably will be for even a year or so, and the
requirement of 1.5 may put off a considerable number of people.
I, for one, as I have a 1.4.2 development environment and don't
want to install 1.5 just yet. My own project could potentially
use TM4L but I am staying with 1.4.2 for the above-stated
reasons.

Just a thought, as feedback. It looks like an interesting
project.

Murray
