Hi all,
this morning I was about to upgrade some dependencies in the trunk
(mainly due to the fresh release of CXF 3.0.0): while many of them
were upgraded. I had to give up with Commons DBCP since their latest
stable release 2.0 requires Java 7 [1].
Now, since support for Java 6 was dropped a long while ago [1], and
since I can see many other ASF projects setting Java 7 as their
minimum requirement (besides Commons DBCP 2.0, also Tomcat >= 8.0,
Wicket 7, CXF is discussing about this step [3]), I would like to
propose to switch to Java 7 as minimum requirement for the trunk.
WDYT?
