What is the minimum runtime to target? Java 1.5?

Well, now that we added references to StringBuilder, we need to specify Java 5 
as the minimal requirement.

So J2ME is no more a target platform? See also issue 4.

J2ME compliance was an initial thing in 2005, when we first installed Ganymed 
on smart phones. However, this is out of focus for a long time. On the other 
hand, 1.4.2 compliance has always been stressed. I think as of 2011 we can ramp 
up the requirements easily to Java 5.0. Somebody who still uses Java 1.4.2 
shall use the older Ganymed releases, they are stable and have worked for 
years. For us, Java 5.0 is a nice thing, e.g, it allows us to use generics and 
have cleaner code without using Vectors that store "objects" etc.
