I guess it depends on what you consider a "change." The latest Java is version 1.4, but there were at least: 1.0 1.1 1.1.1 1.2 1.3 1.3.0 1.3.1 I may have missed some of the "minor" releases. Some of the later version "breaks" apps written in previous versions.

This is, perhaps, the strangest assertion I have ever heard made about Java. ?1.4 versions in, what, seven years? ?Not goshdarned often enough by a long shot, most would say. ?OS/400 changes faster than Java, I think. <<snip>>
