The comment on the change is:
Filled in text about the Java version survey, and Batik's status.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  '''General Comments'''
  
- No project-level issues at the moment.
+ Jeremias initiated a survey for users of XML Graphics Commons, Batik and FOP to determine the level of desire to change the minimum required Java version from 1.3.  From the results of that, and discussions between the developers, it was decided that subsequent project releases from XML Graphics will require Java 1.4.  (Batik's 1.7 release will be the final one to require Java 1.3.)

  '''Batik'''
  
+ Batik's two Google Summer of Code students finished their projects successfully, although they did not have as much interaction with the developer community (such as it is) as much as I would've liked.  Ivan has recently finished ironing out the bugs in his DOM Viewer window enhancements and will be committed to the repository soon.  Jasleen's project needs a bit more work before it can be committed.
+ 
+ A bunch of bugs were fixed recently, and after fixing a couple more, committing Ivan's code, and running through the regression test suite again we'll be ready for the final 1.7 release.
