[wildfly-dev] wildfly 8 client library now requires Java 7 ?

[Kabir Khan]

In the WildFly codebase it is only the protocol and controller-client modules needed for this, these are intentionally quite minimal so I personally don't see a problem with having them target 1.6.
The other dependencies are mostly David's so I'll let him comment on if they are usable in JDK 6 :-)
