Roadmap for Java 1.5?

[Dave Stallard]

I see Java 1.5 is up to Release Candidate status now. Does anybody know
when it's going to be an official release? I can't seem to find this
info on the javasoft website, or elsewhere...

Holy smokes! That's really soon.

I'm looking forward to 1.5, as it's going to have something I've been
waiting for for a very long time. Including things they should have put
into the language from the very beginning, like the "foreach" construct!
And autoboxing for primitives.
