At the moment, I'm very glad that it doesn't. Aside from a few extensions which didn't have 1.5-compatible versions yet, I couldn't get java working in 1.5. Granted, I would have put more time into it if I were stuck with 1.5, but I was able to downgrade easily back to 1.0.7 with only fairly minor issues. Well, one of those issues would ordinarily garner the advice: create a brand-new profile and re-load everything. I was able to track it down to one extension, though. -- Michael A.
