[infinispan-dev] Fwd: Moving to Java 7?

[Tristan Tarrant]

I think we should definitely move to Java 7 for Infinispan 6.0.

Coincidentally, I've been packaging netty 3.6.x which needs java 7 to 
build but generates Java 6-compatible bytecode using various maven 
plugins to perform the magic, which could be used as an interim solution.
