We just switched our Cocoon deployment in production from IBM 1.4 to Sun 1.5 and got at least a 25% performance improvement. Java 1.6 is out. It seems nuts to me to continue to target 1.4 on an as yet unreleased new version of Cocoon. However, if you view this as a code change then the voting rules state that a single -1 vetoes the proposal, and we got that before. Unless the -1 is rescinded I fear we will be stuck at 1.4 until 2010. Ralph
