title: Is java object serialization compatible between 1.5 and 1.6
body: <p>I am wondering whether it is safe to mix jdk 1.5 and 1.6 (Java 6) object serialization (biderctional communication). I searched for an explicit statement from sun concerning this question but did not succeed. So, besides the technical feasability I am searching for an "official" statement concerning the problem.</p>
