[cross-project-issues-dev] Re: EMF usage in TPTP 4.4.0

TPTP PMC, (cc for FYI to Europa leads)
While reading the TPTP PMC mailing list, I encountered this statement:

I think Europa should declare the JRE level that's required to run it otherwise most of the components might not work (not sure if they can be installed either when Java 1.4 is used).

One of the requirements for participation in Europa is #8 on the wiki list:
    8. All plug-ins must correctly list their required JVM versions in the manifest/plugin.xml.

As I understand it, plug-ins for JVM 5 will not load when a JVM 1.4 is being used, as long as the manifests are correct. Thus the Europa distro will run on both JVM 5 and JVM 1.4 (although perhaps with reduced functionality on 1.4 because fewer plug-ins will load). Does this solve the issue or am I missing something?
