Please, guys, keep the following in mind:

- Installing, or updating a JRE does.
Like Renat (RZ) wrote in another post in this thread, You can install a JRE in the Eclipse subfolder and either change eclipse.ini to point to that instance or appoint it with your PATH. Neither require admin privileges.

Not all of us have root permissions, in particular not the Windows users.

    For me the operational word is "require" :-)

    And slightly easier development is *not* a hard requirement in my
    book. Most of the problems the new resource construct can avoid
    can also be avoided using findbug, checkstyle, etc...

        That is a good point. However, I've never been able to
        understand why inertia in some organizations product
        department should be allowed to hold back technology progress
        for the developers. If an organization does allow upgrades of
        Eclipse (and hence upgrades of their development
        environments), then I find it very likely that they will allow
        the developers to use Java 7 as well. The fact that the
        developed product then runs on a Java 6 JVM is not relevant.
        m2e is all about development. The resulting artifact may well
        run on much older platforms.

        So, It's not like anything is taken away. It's just a
        statement that new stuff will require other new stuff. If you
        don't like new stuff, then just stay with the old! But don't
        expect all others to do so just because.
