JDK 5 reached EOSL on 30-Oct-2009 so we should move to 6.

I am not very keen on moving to JDK 6. JDK 5 might very well not be supported anymore, yet I truly doubt any commercial clients of OCL or one of the projects depending on it (QVT*, Acceleo, ...) will switch to JDK 6 until five/six more years from now. Especially when some of them haven't even switched to JDK 5 ...

Switching to JDK 6 would be nice; but I vote against this. IMO, we cannot stop being compliant with JDK 5 yet.

My +1 to Laurent. IMO we should consider moving to JDK 6 if we are explicitly forced to do so in order to participate in the Eclipse train, etc. Unless we get such instructions I would stay with JDK 5.

The LATER resolution would have been good here.
