This brings up an interesting issue: How do we potentially package and
deliver some code that depends on Java 1.4. In a second [codec] jar? I think
we should keep the JRE requirement to a minimum for [codec]. Here, we are
stuck on 1.3.1 for the foreseeable future.

We'll tackle the problem of creating a 1.3 compatible release at relase time, but for the time being, I'm not going to reject good code from highly motivated parties within the ASF. I don't think anyone plans on breaking existing interfaces, but the proposed addition is new functionality.

If you are using 1.2, you can expect releases that support 1.2 to be maintained if there are developers with the motivation to maintain these releases.
