Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-1589:
--------------------------------------------

I don't now, but I guess there are some. I remember the upgrade to java 5 when 
releasing 1.0. There were some people asking for a 1.4 compatible version as 
they were stuck to that version.
Just to clarify my onw position: I'm not against upgrading to 1.7 but if we are 
going to do that it should be for a good reason. IMHO things like "EOL of java 
6" or "others are upgrading too" are not good enough to do so.

> Switch to java 1.6 as minimum requirement for PDFBox
