Hi,

I'm sorry, that might have come out as harsh and that wasn't my  
intention.  :-) I was just trying to point out that people using Java  
on other OSs have to download it themselves, so I don't think it is a  
stretch for mac users to do the same. JDK 1.6 is already in alpha and  
targeted for a fall release. https://mustang.dev.java.net

Hi,

Well, I know that ;-). But the fact that JDK 1.5 on Mac OS X is still in
flux could create some potential problems for some users. Therefore,  
better
be on the safe side.

Best regards

Sylvain
