> Moving to Java 7 allows jclouds to use more language and library features
> such as try-with-resources and HTTP client improvements. We previously
> discussed dropping Java 6 support for jclouds 2.0 on the user mailing list:
> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/jclouds-user/201405.mbox/%3C20140528185718.GC1036@sherlock%3E
> We need to unhook the Java 6 CloudBees builders before committing the Maven
> compile requirement.
