Sun/Oracle JDK/JVM 5 reached its end of life. But they are other vendors out there like IBM (not sure about the status) and SAP, maybe more. 2. Big vendors like the before mentioned are shipping JVM as part of their "solutions", usually application servers, providing support longer than Sun/Oracle for its "official" Java. 3. Furthermore our customers are "conservative", they don't like migrations to new versions. Thats true especially for their operating departments because it brings more work, increases risks ... ----- Bernd Fischer GK Software AG bfischer@gk-software.com -- View this message in context: http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/Dropping-support-for-Java1-5-tp3419554p3503308.html Sent from the Camel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
