It's Java 6 compatible at runtime, not at build time. We can say that because: - the project is configured to generate Java 6 compatible bytecode - 99% of the code doesn't use Java 7 APIs The Java 6 compatibility stops if the new utils classes are used. > The ASF releases source. Yes, and we release source that builds with Java 7 and runs with Java 6.
