SCJD

I passed the SCJP exam back in 1999 (I think) and was certified on JDK 1.2. Now, I'm planning to take the next step and take the SCJD exam. Is my SCJP still valid or does it have some expiration date? I.e. do I have to take the SCJP again before the SCJD?

Refer this site:http://www.sun.com/training/certification/faq/index.html

* "Beginning with all Sun certification exams taken on or after August 1, 2003, certification offerings from Sun no longer have an expiration date. Rather, certification offerings are based on a version of technology."

* For exams taken after September 1, 2002, but prior to August 1, 2003, "Recertification was required to maintain one's status as a certified Sun professional after two years."
