Why would it not be? The only reason you guys would have to provide support for 1.5 would be if enough prospective users required it, and it would threaten the project not to support it. I can't really envision a scenario where someone would take the "risk" of going for qi4j and not be willing to upgrade to 1.6 at the same time. 1.5 is even out of support. The customer profile you are describing is a customer who is both willing to take risks and use new technology, while still not being willing to take risks and sticking with his old technology. Would you want to work with such a customer? Whatever you guys did, it would probably not be good enough through being too risky/too old-school. Have your pick. If such a potential user could be found, I suggest that the energy expended on supporting 1.5 would provide far more potential users to the project if it was placed into additional quality, documentation and/or features instead.
