I'll move this to the Spring Developers mailing list, as it's more 
related to Spring than Acegi Security. Juergen posted an email in April 
that gave me the impression Spring's JDK 1.3 support was pretty good: 
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.springframework.devel/8208. Is 
this no longer the case?

We would have a difficult time maintaining support for multiple Spring 
versions in Acegi Security. I would prefer to know that Spring 1.2 
definitely could not support JDK 1.3 before going down that path.
