Will the reader know you Miguel is? Perhaps add a link to his doc site.
Thanks! Comments incorporated in next commit. |
LGTM. Where will we answer questions, on scala-internals? We could start the thread ourselves and add a link to it. |
Yep, I'll announce on the mailing lists and on twitter. |

## Background | ||
* We can’t have one Scala binary version target two different Java versions without further artifactId name mangling. Even if maven did have support for specifying the required Java version, this fork would be a big burden on the eco-system. Thus, the split between required Java versions has to align with the Scala (binary) version. |
