I've been waiting on generics since 2.0 was killed. As an early adopter of 2.0, I've been struggling with a few projects that where written against 2.0. So far, I've fought off the urge to convert to 1.3 simply because it doesn't make sense to rewrite for 1.3, then again for 1.4. Also, these projects make *heavy* use of generics and it would be a terrible pain to re-write them without. I'd rather go straight to the generics version. Quit punishing us 2.0 early adopters already.
