------------------------------------------
I second 1.7.
> Update default source/target
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: MCOMPILER-335
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-335
> Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 3.7.0
> Reporter: Fred Bricon
> Priority: Major
>
> default source/target have been set to 1.5 in 2010 (MCOMPILER-80). I think
> it's about time to update the default.
> 1.8 would be my preference, as 9 /10 would probably be a tad too ambitious.
> But, since Maven requires at least Java 1.7 to run, 1.7 is probably the
> safest option.
