Felix Meschberger resolved SLING-190.

    Resolution: Won't Fix

I think we can close this issue as "won't fix" because there is probably no real value in it (any longer).

> Currently, there is no check for the minimum Java Runtime environment required by Sling so, Sling will just fail with nasty exceptions if the requirement is not met. The Sling launcher (standalone app and web app) should be modified to fail gently in such cases:
>    * The launcher is built agains JDK 1.4
>    * The launcher checks for the required runtime version
>    * If the runtime version is not correct, Sling should be terminated:
>           -> standalone should just write the message to stderr and terminate the VM
>           -> web app should log a message to the servlet container and throw a permanent UnavailableException
