Doing the maths, the vote was in favor of 1.4. :-D Seriously, I understand the concerns at that time (9 months ago). The user's POLL showed that most of them are using 1.4: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=107821686900002&r=1&w=2 I just found 1 vote against and the reasons was not so good to me: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-users&m=107831280121346&w=2 Because I guess SAP already (or soon will) ship a new version supporting 1.4 I read some time ago, that Sun will not release newer version for 1.3 and 1.4. Maybe that was only a rumor. Not sure, but the problem is that open bugs in older JVM will remain open forever. The complexity for us (committers) is a little bit hard: 2 branches: 1-with 3 JVM (1.3, 1.4 and 1.5) 2-with 2 JVM (1.4 and 1.5). In short 5 compilations of cca. 10 minuts each one to check changes! This is the current situation. :-( In any case: Do you think we need a new vote again? :-) Best Regards, Antonio Gallardo.
