We haven't announced anything yet.  When something is available, I'll
post it in jbuilder.announce.  So, you may want to watch that group.

JDK 1.1.4 and 1.1.5 are just bug fixes above what we have.  As a result,
integrating a new JDK would take a significant amount of QA effort to
ensure that all the Java code we are using still works.  And if problems
are found, research into those problems and the creation of a work
around just lengthens the cycle.  Repeat until finished.

As such, the code you create in JBuilder should run in 1.1.5 already,
assuming 1.1.5 has no new bugs in it that break your code.
