I know how it is, I happen to work for one of those huge companies (though we've long ago migrated to 1.6). The original reason was the source level compatibility, but yes, I agree we should have kept the target at 1.5, especially byte-code wise there's nothing that requires 1.6. Perhaps we'll fix that in a new parent version. In the meantime, for most established companies, shouldn't be an issue hosting a 1.5 version in their company repos.
