Thanks! Yes, we're definitely past the point where trunk has started to require Java 6... With regard to Java 7 -- as Java 7 becomes available, I expect people will start to run/test/build with Java 7. As has happened in the past (with Java 5 and Java 6), we'll tolerate this, but not require Java 7... Not until we're looking at Java EE 7 support, anyway... --kevan
