[VOTE] Remove jdk 1.3 support

Hello,

before easter we have discussed this already. I would like to remove
jdk 1.3 support with the next log4j version 1.2.17. Because there are
so many feelings out there, I would like to call out this vote before.

[] +1 go ahead
[] 0, don't care
[] -1 don't because...

I'll leave it open for the usual 72 hours. After that I will update
the pom files.

Cheers
Christian

Thats true, but I don't want to make such a move when somebody is
really opposed to it... hate rollbacks in svn. As this is a code
change, it can be blocked by a -1, or so I understood it.

Fwiw - i don't think this really needs 3 PMC +1's to pass. If it does I have no problem providing one but I'm not really focused on 1.x.

I don't have a vote, but in spirit I'm definitely +1.

At this point I'd be quite happy requiring Java 6.  In fact the log4j I 
use is patched with several locking improvements one of which requires 
Java 6.

Of course, I'd also like to see (copied from one of my previous posts)...
