Ok, one issue that has been brought up a few times in the last month was the reasons for supporting older versions of Java and Eclipse in PyDev...
Java 7 has been around for a while already (and Java 6 EOL was about a year ago), so, I'm considering making newer versions of PyDev compatible with Java 7 and dropping support for older versions. If there are use cases where people that can't upgrade, I'd like to know about those.
Also, the latest PyDev can support up to Eclipse 3.2 (although some features might not be available if they were introduced on later versions of Eclipse, the reason for this was that Aptana Studio 2 was built on that version, but it's also no longer active, so, this may be a bad reason at this time) -- note that right now the codebase needs to be compiled with the latest Eclipse version, but in runtime it can support older versions of Eclipse.
So, I'm considering supporting only Eclipse 3.8 and 4.3, but I'd also like feedback to check if there are scenarios where this can be a problem...
