I'm using trunk for a development and there are no issues with Java7, so IMO we
can backport yes
We could wait a bit (few weeks?) for log4j2, there is no hurry to release I
guess?

I don't have an opinion on this.
The "rule" has been to keep backports restricted to bug fixes only, but we have a history of backporting various refactorings to make branch
maintenance easier.
From my perspective, the two things cancel each other out, and I end up with no
opinion.

Before I start the process of preparing the release files for the first release of the 13.07 series and call a vote on it I would like to get your
feedback on a couple of topics.
Should we backport to it the recent switch to Java 7?
Should we backport to it the recent update to Log4j2?
The main reason I am asking this is that once we release the first release out of 13.07, for sure we will not backport the aforementioned upgrades
(because they are not bugs); however the 13.07 releases will stay with us for at least 2 years and it would be nice to do the migration to these
new technologies now.
Thanks in advance,
Jacopo
