No I meant my thing might need to run on older platforms. E.g. I might
want to run it on shell hosts or general cheap places, or interest other
people in running it.
People are sometimes... idiosynchratic. I had (and have) a Debian based
shell host that ran Java 1.5 after which they got rid of Java
altogether. When I was looking for these things it was really a rare
occasion that any did offer Java. I've had a friend I asked to run a
Java program I'd written and he wouldn't do it because he thought it
would compromise his machine (being Java).
Silly stuff but you can't choose for other people... I wonder how it is
going to work out ;-).
Regards.

Of course I can do that but not if my logging library requires greater.
Right? Or should I (be able to) write against slf4j and then run on older
systems by binding to an older version of Log4j?.
Write Java 5 style code, usel log4j2 2.4, compile it with Java 7, run it on
Java 7. You can ignore all the stuff you hate about Java 6 and later.
