BTW for the examples there's no version requirement, so
you can use even java6. I don't care.

Dunno if it's possible to have separate compiler settings
in build.xml for that.

Anyhow, like said. common-daemon.jar is 1.3.
Everything else is sugar added, so irrelevant.

The current build files (Ant and Maven) assume that the Java source
and target versions are 1.3.

However, some of the Java source files make use of methods and classes
that require later versions of Java

For example:

java.net.InterfaceAddress requires 1.6
java.net.NetworkInterface - 1.4

FileOutputStream(File file, boolean append) - 1.4
Arrays.copyOf - 1.6
java.lang.System.getenv() - 1.5

I think it's definitely time to abandon Java 1.3, and require at least
1.4 or perhaps 1.5; but I think requiring 1.6 is too much of a jump.

Thoughts?
