Thanks for the feedback so far. However, before taking concrete actions I
would like to put the question again in a broader scope.

The question is: Is it okay for a component to change its minimum required
JDK from 1.3 to 1.4 in a minor release?

I just want to make sure that there are no vetos when it comes to the next
release.

Currently the 1.x version of [configuration] requires JDK 1.3. I wonder
whether it makes sense to switch to JDK 1.4 instead.

I used to think that a switch of the minimum JDK version was only
possible for a major release. However, JDK 1.3 reached its EOL so long
ago that this should not be an issue now.

Also, JDK 1.4 would make some things easier for us. For instance, we
could drop some XML-related dependencies. And we would not have to test
a release on a JDK 1.3.

Are there any objections?
+1, go ahead
