Hi Richard, We want to use ICU components in PsychoPath. In community, Xerces is currently the major consumer of PsychoPath. From Xerces's point of view, I agree that PsychoPath (plus ICU components in it) must ideally compile with JDK 1.3.
PsychoPath still would have usage beyond Xerces as well, as it's an independent Eclipse project. Currently, PsychoPath is compiled with JDK 1.5, and we plan to port it to JDK 1.4 in future. PsychoPath project as such currently, doesn't want to have PsychoPath project work on JDK 1.3 level (this has been discusses also on this list recently). Xerces users, who want to use advanced PsychoPath functionality (like better normalization, and collation), need to work at higher JDK levels, it seems at moment, perhaps JDK 1.5. We can have an effort, from Xerces team (i am willing to invest time on it. but it's not a trivial effort) to port PsychoPath on JDK 1.3. But as suggested by Michael, on this list some time ago, Xerces users, who need better XPath 2.0 compliance, can download the latest PsychoPath release from www.eclipse.org. Apache Xerces SVN repository already has, a JDK 1.3 compliant PsychoPath JAR, which is fairly nicely compliant to XPath 2.0.
