Hi all,

I wanted to open a discussion about Java 7.  Hadoop is planning on dropping
support for JDK 6 with Hadoop 2.7.  Should we switch Oozie trunk to do the
same?

On a related note, for OOZIE-1793, I'm trying to improve the findbugs
reporting for Oozie, and the latest findbugs requires Java 7.  So there are
3 options:
- Drop support for Java 6 for Oozie trunk (the overall question above)
- Switch to an older version of findbugs that does support Java 6.  I'd
have to double check, but this may might it more difficult to get html
human-readable reports instead of XML
- Leave it as is.  Findbugs only runs with the "verify" target, so all
other maven commands still work with Java 6, including compiling.

thoughts?

thanks
- Robert
