Hello,

I downloaded 4.1.3 yesterday. 
I could not run the software because to do so an older Java SE 6 Runtime
Version is needed. 

So why this new Issue here? (Will there be an update of 4.1.3. to newer Java?)

I think that for an user of this software it is likely that he/she will not use
it, because of two conflicting messages:

1. It is strongly recommended to always update to the newest version of in this
case Java due to security reasons. (which is done in my case).

2. The need for an older version - here Java SE 6 Runtime Version - in order to
run the software is in conflict with the general recommendation in 1.
