This isn't as big of an issue as it looks from the "Issues" page. It mostly affects Cocoon, which won't build anyway since it requires Maven2. While it would be nice to have a System.property for this, just to clear out the dead projects that don't care about Java5 (since they are dead :). The truth is that it won't really raise the numbers much. Gump's real losses right now are to M2, not to Java5. > http://vmgump.apache.org/gump/public/junit-addons/junit-addons/gump_work/build_junit-addons_junit-addons.html > > I checked out the source in CVS; they are not saying source="1.5"; they > are not saying anything about the source version.
