> while building on RF-4.5 I found out there are used JDK7 features
> for example here: https://github.com/richfaces/richfaces/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/richfaces/context/AjaxOutputTracker.java#L82
> (diamond operator)
> RichFaces-4.5 are not able to build with JDK6, while as one of the components of WFK-27
> we would need to build them with JDK6
> WFK-2.7 will be based on EAP-6.3.0 which is based on JDK6 as well
> There are 2 possible solutions
> 1. We will go over the upstream code and remove all the JDK7 related code, which I have no idea, how much this would be.
> 2. We will make it in productization branch only, which is not very wise due to future maintenance of WFK-27 and RF-45 following and
> is exactly the opposite way we try to accomplish (get the product & upstream close as much as possible)
> Please note, I am not able to crosscompile from 1.7 source into 1.6 target bytecode... this is not allowed
> (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/javac.html)
