Sorry? The 2.0 version number usually means that it is *incompatible*
to Velocity 1.x.
And, come one, Java 5 is at EOL since the last year:
http://java.sun.com/products/archive/eol.policy.html
And Java 1.3 isn't even mentioned. I think that, at least, a move to
Java 5 is necessary for the sake of everyone.
Otherwise, let's name it Velocity 1.8, not 2.0, it does not make any sense.
