So JUnit 4.0 has shipped. We know this not only from the fact that it has been announced, but because a couple of days ago the public CVS repository suddenly got updated with the new code.

Code which only builds on Java1.5+

Code that doesn't build on the Java1.4 VM that is the VMGump nightly build.

As a result, every OSS project that depends on JUnit has suddenly stopped building on Gump; That is, 57% of all projects, 441 teams.

Only those projects that don't use JUnit are still building: anything that has a test suite is failing to build because whoever was working on JUnit didnt take into account the nightly build and test of all the Java projects.

Oh, the irony
