It might have been a bit easier for everyone to wait till 5.4.2 is released before doing
the switch since now all devs working on 5.4.2 will need to juggle between JDKs…

What it means in practice is that you might have issues building XWiki
with Java 6 from now on (and will probably be impossible in not long).
We don't yet used much Java 7 API but if you don't build everything on
your side you will probably have issues when building a project which
download on maven repository jars built with Java 7.
In short: update your Maven setup to use Java 7 when working with master branch.
Thanks,
I wonder what happens when releasing a 5.x.y bugfix version from the
usual agent...
