You misread. It will work under 1.5 but only if we package an additional
MB of libraries. Apart from a slightly higher download time and memory
footprint you wouldn't notice.
But while we're at it, give us some reasons why we need to remain 1.5
compatible. I'm not in a hurry to switch to 1.6 but we'll do it at
*some* point and I am interested in finding out what that point is going
to be.
Bye
