Right. CXF 3.0.x supports Java 6. 3.1.x is java 7/8. 3.2.x will be Java8 only. Also note that we already did the same thing with Camel, twice. We supported Java 6 up to 2.14.0. We dropped support for Java 6 and went Java7+ in 2.15. Camel 2.6 supported Java5, but we dropped that in Camel 2.7 and went Java6+. -- Daniel Kulp dk...@apache.org - http://dankulp.com/blog Talend Community Coder - http://coders.talend.com
