If we're looking to use our position as away to push people to upgrade their EOL-ed stuff, than I am for making Java 6 the minimum (i.e. some organizations won't upgrade until something forces them too).

I typically look at it from the perspective of what is in 1.6 (or 1.7) that is helpful enough to us at the development team to enforce some minimum on the deployers. I didn't see anything compelling enough in a 1.6 API for us that made it worth it to force a higher minimum.

Cheers,

While you might not see anything compelling, one of the libraries you depend on might. For instance Apache Commons IO recently released version 2.4, which is dependent on Java 6.
