<body>I should have been more precise, my intention is to increase the minimum version of Java to 1.6 (aka Java 6). This includes anyone who uses 1.7/ Java 7. The only group excluded are those who are still on 1.5. <br>
If I remember correctly that there those with a Mac system running on a Motorola cpu. But most likely there is no one left. <br>

All users of rails,<br/>
For the upcoming version 2.0 of Rails my intention is to move to Java<br/>
version 1.6. Are there still serious obstacles to upgrading? Especially<br/>
for those users on a Mac OS?<br/>
There are several libraries used by Rails, which have moved to 1.6<br/>
support only.<br/>
Thanks for your feedback,<br/>
Stefan<br/>

+1 from me.<br/>

I would also be comfortable jumping the supported platform to Java 7 (1.7). It's been out for a couple years now. Wikipedia says Java 7 was released in July 2011 and Java 6 was released in December 2006. So, I don't think anyone can make a valid case that Java 7 is "too new" or lacks widespread adoption or support.<br/>
