I guess you mean JCR Base, right? I guess that for us there is no need
to bump up the version as this only affects compilation and how package
imports are calculated by bnd.

This allows users of the bundle to decide for themselves which version
of Jackrabbit they want to run against. Note that our current launchpad
is built on Oak 1.6/Jackrabbit 2.14 .

That being said, I'm not against setting a baseline to the oldest
stable release of Jackrabbit. Which one is that however? Looking at 

  http://jackrabbit.apache.org/jcr/index.html
  http://jackrabbit.apache.org/jcr/news-archive.html

I only found a reference to 'October 3rd, 2011: End of life of
Jackrabbit 1.x'
