The defaults are currently set in the plexus-compiler-javac component (to source=1.3 and target=1.1) and not in the maven-compiler-plugin. I would just like to set the default in the AbstractCompilerMojo and be done with it. This way when we release 3.0-beta-1 the default source/target will be 1.5. I'll also bump the locked down version of the maven-compiler-plugin I cut accordingly.
If I don't hear anything I'll assume that's fine and cut it. Thanks, Jason ---------------------------------------------------------- Jason van Zyl Founder, Apache Maven http://twitter.com/jvanzyl ----------------------------------------------------------
