OK, I know we've had this discussion for the 2.0 release, but now that you cannot receive free support updates to Sun/Oracle Java SE 5, I don't see why we would continue supporting it in the trunk code that will eventually become the 2.1 release. It is definitely a headache to continue building with 1.6 but support 1.5 for runtime and verify it by running our JUnits on 1.5. Also, we have the 2.0.x branch to support 1.5 users, so the debate about not allowing 1.5 users to move up to JPA 2.0 support no longer applies.
