Re: Java5 branch status

The internals are pretty much unchanged, so it should all work fine. I tried
pretty hard to keep backward-compatible interfaces. There are some
enhancements that I plan to merge into the master branch at some point; you
may or may not notice them.

I ended up somewhat disillusioned about using generics for everything. I
developed and deployed an application with it myself, kind of as an
experiment (the application was real, using generics was an experiment), but
wasn't satisfied enough to release it.

There are certain things that are very nice about generics, but they can
also become kind of viral and verbose. I'd be curious to hear your
impressions if you try it out.

Cheers,
Justin
