> > hard to stay on 1.4 if we want to get bug fixes/new features from the

> > * We already require 1.5 I believe (although it's a light dependency)
> > and have been requiring 1.5 for now several months (> 5 months) and
> > we haven't heard complaints from users about this

> > The vote is about officially dropping support for 1.4 and
> > standardizing on 1.5 (and thus allowing us to use the new features of
> > the language too like generics, annotations, etc).
