Any new insights on this one? The current master will still FTBFS on Java 5.

I don't see the benefits in this. As I said earlier, Java 6 and 7 IMO
don't provide enough benefits
to justify the change.
A newer Java version is required if we want to update the closure compiler.

I agree with Rob. A common sense approach would be to require 1.6 for
T5.4
and then require 1.8 in a future version.

Not opposed to an upgrade to Java 8, but not sure 5.4 is the right time
for it. 5.4 has been long-enough in coming that I feel it would be
better
to release 5.4, and use 5.5 as the java8 upgrade, possibly with a fairly
short release time between 5.4 and 5.5. Basically, 5.5 could be “5.4
with
java 8 compatibility” (and whatever new features (like the httpOnly
cookie
flag ticket you commented on recently) that would need > java 1.5 to
support).

Historically I have been a strong opponent to Java version upgrades for
Tapestry because IMO the
disadvantages outweighed the advantages by far.
Now that we have lambda expressions, default methods, Nashorn and many
other useful features I'm
leaning towards making a radical break and switch to Java 8.
We should have a formal vote for such a radical change and a discussion
firstin order to gather
comments and opinions from the community.

I'll downgrade it tomorrow and get myself a Java 1.5 compiler...
Which is much harder than I thought it was. I managed to find old
rt.jar and jce.jar files and to
make Gradle use them.
Now I'm getting compile errors, e.g. in VirtualResource:88,
MacOutputStream:45 and others. Mostly,
it's Java 6 methods being used.
First of all, do we still want to stick with Java 5 now that Java 8 is
out and even Java 6 is EOL?
Second, I wonder why it builds in Jenkins. What JDK is used there?
