[DISCUSS] Time to finally drop Java SE 5 support starting the 2.1
codebase?
OK, I know we've had this discussion for the 2.0 release, but now that
you cannot receive free support updates to Sun/Oracle Java SE 5, I don't
see why we would continue supporting it in the trunk code that will
eventually become the 2.1 release. It is definitely a headache to
continue building with 1.6 but support 1.5 for runtime and verify it by
running our JUnits on 1.5. Also, we have the 2.0.x branch to support
1.5 users, so the debate about not allowing 1.5 users to move up to JPA
2.0 support no longer applies.
Thoughts?

OK, I finally got a release:perform to complete, but the staged site and
binary assembly didn't include a full set of combined Javadocs, so I'll
have to rollback and try again.....

+1 removing official support of 1.5 on trunk.
Would trunk continue to build 1.5 level binaries or would it switch to 1.6?
Is there any major benefit in building 1.6 level binaries? If not, there's
a good chance trunk *may* continue to work with JRE 1.5 if trunk uses a 1.5
level build.

OK, given no responses since August 23, I'll close the discussion and
open a JIRA to make the changes.
