[jira] [Created] (MCOMPILER-335) Update default source/target

Fred Bricon created MCOMPILER-335:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Update default source/target
                 Key: MCOMPILER-335
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-335
             Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 3.7.0
            Reporter: Fred Bricon


default source/target have been set to 1.5 in 2010 (MCOMPILER-80). I think it's about time to update the default.

1.8 would be my preference, as 9 /10 would probably be a tad too ambitious.

But, since Maven requires at least Java 1.7 to run, 1.7 is probably the safest option.
