+1 for dropping java 1.4 support.
> Since these projects are technically not ASF ... Actually I'd go further one step: plexus has been developed to 90% by ASF committers. So I'd rather go and move plexus over to maven completely while upgrading to java 1.5 and rewrite/drop parts with uncertain provenience. The plexus SVN which vanished from day to the other from codehaus.org left a deep cut and uncertainty. I'm pretty sure that we can get all the history from Ben and we should keep this history somewhere as backup.
