Java Support in some of the Felix bundles

[Felix Meschberger <fm...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

Currently we have a policy, that we compile everything (or most) to be
acceptable by Java 1.3 VMs. While working on the R 4.2 support of
Declarative Services I now and thought about whether we should excempt
some bundles from this rule.

This is just wild thinking and there is nothing concrete, not even a
requirement. So if you think, we should stick with the "Java 1.3"
policy, I am perfectly fine with it.

WDYT ?

Regards
Felix

Well, SCR wouldn't be one of those bundles. ;-)

I think we should only compile to higher byte code levels if necessary, 
but keep it as low as possible to maintain broader compatibility.
