agreed, we can't require java 5 with 1.1 (the spec says 1.4).

There's no choice in regards to JSF 1.2. JSF 1.2 already requires Java 1.5.
However, I'm definitely against JSF 1.1 requiring Java 1.5.

This is certainly a large issue. Some products still have to support Java
1.3.

At ILOG I had major issues when trying to move from RI to MyFaces as it involved a move to 1.4. Thankfully after almost six months I got approval but it was a pain. There are no moves being made because, just a Heinz mentioned, some large customers are still using Application Servers which are limiting. In some cases even as low as Java 1.3. So moving to 1.5 would be a nightmare for now. I think that even doing this with the 1.2 release
would be unwise.

I just want to remind that there are still a significant number of

the Application Server used.
WebSphere would be here candidate number 1 to be named but I know also
a large number of WebLogic sites which cannot migrate to versions
supporting Java 5.

As long the use of  Java 5 features would be compensated by using
Retroweaver to produce jars working in 1.4.x runtimes I would be
happy.  If support for the 1.4.x environments would be stopped I
foresee some conflicts.

Using Retroweaver is no ideal solution, it would require to provide
two parallel jar-structures.
But it's better than leaving a lot of sites without a top-level
JSF-implementation.

I agree,

lets wait until we branch then start putting the 5.0 syntax.

as soon as we branch of for 1.2, we will.

Speaking of JDK1.5, now that we've released a TCK-compliant JSF
1.1
implementation, and we're looking to the future, should we start
allowing 1.5 syntax in the HEAD ?

I'm also now using .jspx (JSP XML format) exclusively in my own
projects, as it's easier to edit in XML editors and just *looks* cleaner. Converting our example .jsp s should not be a huge task.

That's Travis working on JDK1.5 who hasn't ensured backwards
compatibility.
