Yes sure, we could do that. But is it really worth the effort? Are there really people waiting for this fixes? The last release was in 2005. That’s 12 years. I’m not saying we shouldn’t do it, but I fear that it will be some work, given the fact that at the moment I have no idea who to build and release Jelly. So if I were to decide, I’d say let’s just start over and push out a new release without having to make it compatible with Java 1.3 (?)
