+1 for Java 7
I looked at the build logs, Java client is currently built with
Java version: 1.7.0_80, vendor: Oracle Corporation
Java home: /opt/public/common/jdk1.7.0_80/jre

Hi All,For security reasons, I would vote for Java 7 as a the next supported minimal platform.

Hi All,
As you may or may not know, the Paho Java client currently supports Java 1.4 as it's minimum JRE, Which has now been out of support since 2008.
There have been a few bugs raised recently where we've accidentally implemented features not supported by the 1.4 JRE and we are trying to fix them now so that the 1.3.0 release in November fully supports Java 1.4. This is important because I'm hoping that 1.3.0 will be the last release to support it and so I want to make sure that anyone stuck using 1.4 has a good last release to use.
What should the new minimum JRE / JDK be that we support? Java 5 is also out of extended support with Java 6 to follow next year. Maybe if we go with Java 6 or 7 as the new minimum?
I'm going to create a new feature branch in GitHub where any Java 6 and above only features can live until after we've released 1.3.0, after which they can be merged back into develop.
Hope that makes sense / sounds sensible to everyone.
Kind regards,
