Description

The Java packages use -source 1.5 to specify that they should use that version of the API. This is being done for compatibility sake, but 1.5 is EoL'd and 1.6 has also been EoL'd ( http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html ).
We need to go back through the Java code and sort out if we need to move to compiling against Java 6 or Java 7 (ideally 7).

Do you know the state of the Java code right now, Noah? I wonder if this got done already or is still a bug requiring work. (Just assigning it to you for the answer.)

Closing. I'm not sure what the problem is here.. it looks like I am saying that the code builds for a super old version of Java, which seems like it is a good thing :) I've not heard from anyone regarding JVM compatibility problems.
