Rob Vesse commented on JENA-714:
--------------------------------
I assume taking this patch removes source compatibility with Java 6
Despite the fact that we have moved trunk onto Java 7 when we discussed that
move in the community the consensus was that in the short term while any new
Apache Jena releases would be compiled against Java 7 those who need Java 6
could still download and build from source. It sounds like taking this patch
now would remove that possibility entirely, I am not advocating that we don't
take the patch merely that we are fully aware of the implications of taking it.

> The enclosed patch is a result of running a large number of automated
> language level upgrades available in intellij Idea (about 4000 individual
> items).
> As such, the patch contains no "manual" changes done by hand, and should be
> safe to apply, if somewhat large :)
