For some reason that link isn't working for me. Would you be able to paste
or give me some more details?

I was really hoping the SE 7 requirement was an oversight. I really want to
upgrade to the latest Jersey, but unfortunately my organization won't be
upgrading our servers for a while.

So Jersey folks, are you done with 1.6? I gotta figure out a path forward
here.... if I stick with Jersey 2.6 I figure I'll get screwed out of any
updates presuming they'll all be built on 1.7. Alternatively, I can port my
app back to Jersey 1.x. It's like a lose lose situation for me here unless
Jersey 2 supports 1.6.
