JRE/JDK Version

All,

What JDK/JRE environment do we want to target for the broker? The OSGi
plugins specify Java 5 as a minimum, and the ant build uses Java 5
compatibility when building, however, in the ServerSession class, we
use a ConcurrentSkipListMap, which is a Java 6 only class. I don't see
a big issue in changing to requiring Java 6, personally...

Andrew.

Java 6 is fine for a standalone server application I think, there is no 
constraint preventing the use of the latest version.

Seems reasonable, it's roughly four years since Java6 came out and two  
since Java5 was given EOL status.

Personally I think that it's probably time that we required Java 6 for
the Broker...

If we can keep Java 5 for the client that'd be nice...
