I understand this position. In general, I agree with it. However, we have already had several general discussions of the JDK version issue.

A Yes/No position is exactly what we need now. I have a candidate bug fix that I'm QA testing right now, written based on prior general discussion, that cannot be checked in until we have a definite, official agreement to drop 1.4 support. If continued 1.4 support is required, I'll have to find another solution.

A general advice; Instead of starting off vote threads, try "inclusive
discussion of change" so there is less of a Yes/No position to things.
It is not always needed to be as elaborate as Peter's exhaustive
approach, but in general this leads to engagement, thinking and
formalizing the requirements, instead of passive 'decision making'.

Dear voters,

I'm happy with the votes on the JDK5 vote, but could you also cast your vote
on the 1.4 ballot?

I a few days i will tally both, and post the results on the website.
