Think the question is: we'll we add any feature EE 6 users will start working with? If yes we should stick to it, if not then just target EE 7 and move EE 6 in a maintenance branch. Romain Manni-Bucau @rmannibucau | Blog | Github | LinkedIn | Tomitriber 2016-03-25 15:44 GMT+01:00 John D. Ament

-1 for dropping Java EE 6, we still have Java EE 6 users. Also, as gerhard said, we don't gain much benefit from dropping it. What about moving forward to DS 2.0 with Java EE 8 and Java SE 8 after the release of Java EE 8? 2016-03-25 15:44 GMT+01:00 John D. Ament : > IMHO we should target a maj

IMHO we should target a major version change if we're going to drop EE 6. There's still some benefits to having EE 6, but they should start to die down. Maybe DeltaSpike 2.0 is EE 7 +? John On Fri, Mar 25, 2016 at 9:07 AM Christian Kaltepoth wrote: > I also think that we should keep to support

All, Most of my clients still work with Java EE 6 (on Java SE 7), so I think it is too early to abandon that version. +1 for setting compile version to SE 7. Regards Rudy On 25 March 2016 at 13:48, Gerhard Petracek wrote: > hi @ all, > > imo the benefit is too limited. > cdi 1.1 added some n

hi @ all, imo the benefit is too limited. cdi 1.1 added some nice parts, but mainly for users. we would just drop the bv-module as well as some parts of the servlet module. the jsf-module already contains optional ee7 support (-> we would just get rid of one small workaround). for the rest the ben

Since John raised the question about Java SE 6 support, what about Java EE 6? Dropping support for Java EE 6/CDI 1.0 would simplify the code base significantly (a lot more so than moving from Java 1.6 to Java 1.7). How about starting a new release line DeltaSpike 2.x targeting Java EE 7+ and
