I disagree. Joerg has not given us any real reason why Cocoon 2.2 needs to run on any of these older platforms. In order for a veto to be considered valid it must be based on a real problem.
He has, but it seems you're not accepting them :-P
I'll ask once more: if a company is so conservative with their software upgrades that they are still running platforms that do not support Java 1.5 then what possible reason would they have for wanting to run Cocoon 2.2?
But this has _nothing_ to do with being conservative! The impact of upgrading the app server platform site-wide, ie globally in case of a multinational, is huge when there are hundreds of apps running on it. This does not mean however that those apps individually cannot upgrade their cocoon version from 2.1 to 2.2 .
I'ld say we stop argueing about this and use our time more constructively to experiment with the retroweaver. I hear it has an ant task, integrating it into our build process should be a breeze then.
