When is the EOL for java 6? What is the rush? By switching to Java 7 you are telling everyone who wants to use the latest OFBiz that they MUST use Java 7, there needs to be a good reason for that.

You can't even get Java 7 for OSX currently (and no I'm not talking OpenJDK), as far as I can tell it's not expected until sometime in 2012.

+1 on making sure that OFBiz runs without problems on Java 7 before trying to add any new features that means it only runs on Java 7.
Is it worth asking infra to setup buildbot, demo system etc up for testing against both 6 & 7? Also wondering if there is any rule of thumb about when the new Java release become stable enough for production, like Tomcat is +6 months?

At the moment (and actually at any moment ;o), I don't think infra has the resources for this kind of demand...
Did someone test locally? Could someone install a CI for it on its own?

Finally it's a WIP, we have already Builbot builds for all releases, we still miss to run tests, but this should be done soon also
