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.
The only comment about CXF 3.0.0, Dan is planning to branch it out for
Java 6 customers be able to switch to 3.0.0 from 2.7.x, CXF
3.1.0-SNAPSHOT will be indeed Java 7 based. It is probably not going to
affect Syncope, but mentioning it just in case
Cheers, Sergey
WDYT?
