Carsten Ziegeler commented on FELIX-4550:
-----------------------------------------

Rethinking my previous position :) maybe it's really not worth the effort to support Java 6; however I think it would make sense to keep some modules at Java 6 like the bridge or the whiteboard implementation as these can be used in a webapp context; and app servers are pretty famous in not updating that fast to newer java versions

> Currently HTTP Service embeds Jetty 8.1.14.v20131031 which supports Servlet 3.0. Current Jetty version 9.2.1.v20140609 supports Servlet 3.1 which provided access to some new NIO based features. Further it also provides lots of new features like Spdy support , Websocket support etc [1]
