I'm considering bumping minimal source/target values in Maven Compiler
Plugin to 1.6 starting from Fedora 23. What is your opinion?
Java 9 is going to drop support for compiling for targets < 1.6.
This change would allow us to notice some problems earlier and give us
more time for fixing them.
Currently XMvn ensures that all Maven builds are compiled with
source/target of 1.5 and that target >= source (this is to avoid
problems caused by JSR-14).
The proposed change would adjust source/target used by Maven Compiler
Plugin when building RPM packages, according to the following snippet:
source = max(source, 1.6)
target = max(target, source)
Are there any objections?
