I think you have misunderstood my point.
I'm not saying that the code needs to stay on Java 6 for future releases.
However, assuming that it is working OK on Java 6, it seems silly to
insist that the developers update it to use Java 7 *now*.
Especially since the code appears to be about ready for a release.
Changing to Java 7 now would require additional work which would delay
the release.
But by all means move to Java 7 for the next release if the developers
who are actually working on it agree that it is necessary.
