Well, for what it's worth (which isn't much) I for one am glad
Cocoon 2.2 still supports JDK 1.4. It's finally looking like our US
datacentre is getting their act together so my team can plan to
migrate our sites off Websphere 5.0 (JDK 1.3, and end-of-life'd
about 9 months ago!) onto a more recent version. However, the new
version that they are willing to support is 6.0, which uses... JDK 1.4
In 2007 the company decided to upgrade to websphere 6.0. It is a product
from 2004. Hence I don't believe such cutting-edge technology as
cocoon 2.2 is going to be picked up there until it is not 3 years old
or so, hence we are talking about year 2010 when the company will
plan to move to java 5 and cocoon 2.2. Is this correct? If yes, there
is another reason to move to java 5 for cocoon 2.2 now! :)
What some people here seem to ignore is the difference between the
environment you deploy your application in and the application itself.
While you might not influence the environment like in Andrew's case
with the data center or a hosting provider you might deploy there
everything you like - unless you require more than it is provided.
As discussed before, Retroweaver is available for those who are
dependent on obsolete infrastructure.
And what some other people here seem to ignore is the increasing cost
for our community to stay behind the rest of the world.
And, BTW, what is your take on our Continuum problems?
