Explanation

Java 1.5 (also known as Java 5) was codenamed 'Tiger' during development. Sun Microsystems used animal codenames for major Java releases: 1.3 was 'Kestrel', 1.4 was 'Merlin', 1.5 was 'Tiger', and 1.6 was 'Mustang'. This naming convention helps developers and administrators refer to specific versions during discussion and planning.
