+The code requires at least Java 1.6 to build.
+
+However, current versions of Maven tend to require at least Java 7.
+
+If you want to build and test the code using Java 1.6, use the profile -Pjava-1.6, e.g.
+
+mvn clean test -Pjava-1.6
+
+For setting up your Maven installation to enable the use of the profile, please see:
+
+http://commons.apache.org/commons-parent-pom.html#Testing_with_different_Java_versions
+
+Building the site will also generally require at least Java 7.
+Also, ensure Maven has enough memory when using Java 7:
+
+export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m" # Unix
+set MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m"    # Windows
+
+For Java 8+, the MaxPermSize option should be removed:
+
+export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m" # Unix
+set MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m"    # Windows
