I felt that my current involvement in cocoon is not big enough to

past experience, but technically you're right ofcourse.
Based on the "Voting Policies" thread I think it's legitimate for me
to ask if you can give us a _compelling_ reason why you need to run
Cocoon 2.2 on a platform that does not have Java 5 support and why
running Cocoon 2.1 instead isn't sufficient? If you have a real use
case that requires Cocoon 2.2 on some platform that does not support
Java 5 then I think a veto would be appropriate. Otherwise, I think a
-0 would be a good indication of concern.
Just as much as i can't give a more compelling reason than i already
have, there is no compelling reason to do the switch either. The core
of my concern, _bluntly put_, was to limit our possible target
audience for the sake of being able to write enhanced for loops.
Having said all this, the retroweaver stuff looks quite funky and
might very well make this whole discussion obsolete in a few months.
Cheers,
Jorg
