Concerns, no, not really, but maybe we should consider a change in all EPP packages for Kepler.
At the moment we define 1.5 as a minimum Java version by defining

  -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5

in the VM arguments. That way we prevent users with an older VM running the Eclipse packages, but IMO this setting could (should!) be updated to 1.6 in the Kepler packages if everyone agrees to that and no one has any valid objections.

Are there any concerns if I change m2e to require at least java 1.6 for
Kepler? m2e is part of "java" package and I believe there is a proposal
to include it in "jee" too.

I think it is reasonable to assume noone cares about 1.5 if even Eclipse
Platform does not consider 1.5 as one of reference platforms any more ;-)
