[m2e-users] java 6 support past 1.5/Luna no more

Given that Oracle stopped making public updated to java 6 in February
2013 [1], and given that Eclipse Foundation does not let me collect
actual java usage statistics [2], I decided it is reasonable for m2e 1.6
to require java 7.

I really want to start using java 7 new io features and
try-with-resources in m2e. Anyone who has to use java 6 for whatever odd
reason will just have to stick with m2e 1.5 until they are able to
upgrade to java 7.
