Re: [Pydev-code] Java 7 and Apache Commons

[Fabio Z. <fa...@es...>]

Hi Jonah,

I'll do the following: I'll create a blog entry to ask people what they
think about... personally, I think going forward is nice, but I'd like to
check with the current user base if that's an issue... (at a time I know
Mac OS users had problems updating to more recent versions of Java, and
Eclipse 3.2 was the version used by Aptana Studio 2, but I don't think it
has to be supported anymore).

So, I'll ask users to be able to give you feedback :)

Cheers,

Fabio
