Generics can be used on signatures for existing methods when it makes
sense. If you look at Java SE 5.0, you will see many methods whose
signatures changed (Collections API is an obvious example) without
breaking compatibility with earlier code at runtime.

I meant JSR-221 here. A quick scan of the specs and javadoc that
didn't require a license agreement seem to indicate that generics are
only used on methods new to JDBC 4.0.
