Could you be more specific about which versions of JDK are required for compatibility with which old versions of OS X? Elsewhere in this discussion thread it was suggested to raise the minimum JDK version requirement to Java 1.8. Your statement "please keep backward compatibility with older JDKs" could mean anything between "please leave everything as it is now" to "bumping the minimum requirement to Java 1.8 is absolutely fine with me". This requirement would be introduced for Subversion 1.11. Can you explain which versions of OS X / JDK you expect to support when Subversion 1.11 will be released in probably 2 to 3 years from now?
