[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-6721) Deprecate support for Java 6

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6721?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15173955#comment-15173955 ] 

Kim Haase commented on DERBY-6721:
----------------------------------

Well, there is a difference between changing the JDK platforms used to build/test vs. the ones used to run Derby: removing support for a platform has documentation impact, so you'll need to file a doc subtask for DERBY-6857, I think. I used to have a list of the topics that are affected -- maybe I can come up with one.
