        Subject:        When is sunset for Domino R5 on OS/400?

If there is a sunset planned for Domino R5 on OS/400 does anyone know 
if/when it is planned?

When we went to V4R5 of OS/400 support was dropped for R4 of Domino.  (See 

the V4R5 Memo to Users.)  Has anyone heard if such a thing is planned for 
R5?

I checked out the following website:
http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/support/planning/

There is a typo.  In the link Future releases / Software
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/support/planning/futuresftwr.html

It mentions that 5722-JV1 Option 4 is JDK 1.2.  Actually it is 1.1.8.

Is either JDK 1.2 or JDK 1.1.8 required for Domino R5?  As the above web 
site announces that they are both being dropped in the release after V5R2.
