The discussion on our development list makes it clear that a lot of
folks are anxious for generified models. Most users if not all wish us
to release a quick release which is 1.3 + generics. The consequence is
that the core team will stop to support 1.3, and that everybody that
wishes updates will have to migrate to 1.4, and upgrade to Java 5.

Everybody is invited to vote! Please use

[ ] +1, Wicket 1.4 is 1.3 + generics, drop support for 1.3
[ ] -1, I need a supported version running on Java 1.4

Let your voices be heard!

Time to call this vote...

This thread has collected according to my best calculations the
following statistics:

-1 : 2
-0 : 1
+1 : 6 non-votes in 100 messages : 100 - 6 - 2 - 1 = 91

I think we can safely say that with the next release Wicket will
finally be Java 5 based, will be generics only and that we will drop
support for 1.3 shortly. The release after the generics release will
include all the other stuff we want to do.

We will start the discussion on how to proceed with the planning,
branching and stuff on the dev@ list. If you have to stay on Java 1.4
for a while, please join the dev@ list and share your concerns,
reasons why you can't move to Java 5 and we will see how our planning
will affect your framework use.

Thank you all for voting!

Martijn
