I guess this means forms trunk has to support JDK 1.3 and cannot move to 1.4?

Yep, since we are now sharing the same form block (in cocoon-blocks) for both cocoon versions (2.1.x and 2.2). Seems like every day JDK 1.3 compatibility becomes a bigger PITA! :-( Need we still care?

Please don't let this discussion arise on every incompatibility we have, it's getting boring.

1. 2.1.x *is* actually our latest release and not a future 2.2.
2. 2.1.x supports JDK 1.3.
3. We have to care about it as long as 2.1 is maintained - this does not stop with the first 2.2 release.

If now the forms block and others are shared between 2.1 and trunk we must keep JDK 1.3 compatibility. If we don't want that we must provide a 2.1 and trunk version of the blocks. But I guess at the moment it is easier to get this fixed instead of maintaining a block twice.
