The source code is now available via CVS. Over the next week, we’'ll be working towards a binary release as well as adding nightly source snapshots, etc.
Strange you had to add www. I was a happy eclipse user until we moved to Java 1.5. Even with eclipse 3.1 M2 you won’‘t be able to compile Messenger since eclipse doesn’'t fully support 1.5 yet.
Indeed, i was able to check out messenger, but cant compile it on eclipse. But I wonder now what features of the still very young java 1.5 you have to depend on?

So far, we’'re using generics and many of the new 1.5 classes such as ConcurrentHashMap. None of this is stricly necessary. However, we decided to require JDK 1.5 because of SASL support, SSLEngine, and improvements to NIO. All three of those things will be used by Messenger in the near future.
I remember that eclipse was having problems recognizing enums. The good news is that eclipse is making progress. I read that the Nightly Build for 10/22/04 can handle enums. Let me know how it goes if you want to take your chances with a Nightly Build!
