I also voted for this jira.
The single line usePlugin('java') should really be enough to build a
stand alone project. The jira contains a comment stating that the
version can be inferred from the running JDK/JRE, this seems to make
sense. But maybe we should stick to either 1.5 if JDK running is 1.5+ or
1.4 otherwise.
For version, the default could be either the empty string or something
like "0.1" or "0.0.1". Something like "unknown", so that the generated
artifact would be projectname-unknown.jar.

This is such a small thing but for people starting on the "Use Gradle"
road it will be an irritant.

I don't mind specifying it explicitly :). However, it might be
cool to
have single 'javaCompatibility' field that would be used for
both
target and source. Most projects use the same value for target
&
source anyway.
