Java version requirement

Hi,

I was looking at pig website and found this page: 
http://incubator.apache.org/pig/deployment.html
With this line:
    Requirements: Java 1.6.x.

I may have missed a mailing list thread but I thought pig was targeted 
fo 1.5 and higher ?
Did it changed recently or is this page out-dated ?

cheers

Yes, we initially wanted to do it with 1.6 version. However, several
people complained because 1.6 is not available on Mac. So we rolled it
back. Need to update the site.

The page is outdated.  I did a sweep through the docs once and thought 
I found everywhere where it said 1.6.  Obviously, I missed one.  At 
least until all major platforms support a 1.6 JVM, pig is still 
targeted to run using Java 1.5.
