I'd +1 if we know the binaries built with Java 6 test ok with Java 7
JRE. But I can't see that would be very easy to do.

Do you mean create a java7-parent pom? Or something else. I don't
think we need a java7-parent as that would be to enable us to write
code that relies on Java 7 specific features.

I think this is causing the SDK to be (rightly) more sensitive:

Trouble is, I can't immediately see how to set the bootclasspath -
rt.jar location of java 5 in maven without changing the java5-parent
pom. What would be nice is a way of setting it in a machine specific
way. I tried configuring it in settings.xml but maven complains that
isn't allowed.

Still looking...
