[DISCUSSION] Java 5 support

[Florian Müller]

Hi all,

Today, OpenCMIS supports Java 5 and later. I'd like to discuss if we 
still need Java 5 support or if we can drop it.

We have made a few compromises in OpenCMIS to support Java 5 
(especially around Web Services) and implemented stuff ourselves that is 
part of Java 6 and later (for example the cookie handling). Getting rid 
of the Java 5 support could simplify the OpenCMIS code base in a few 
places.

Java 5 reached end of live in 2009. Do you feel that it is still 
relevant for OpenCMIS users?
