Upgrade Java version from 5 to 6,7 or 8?

At least java 6, so that we can remove the jaxb-dependencies.

Btw. is this project dead? I see 3 PRs since spring and no acitivity. Does anyone know of other active Java KML libs?

There's been nobody actively developing it for a few years now and someone moved the project to GitHub perhaps two years ago. Feel free to fork the project. I can't see the need for other KML libraries, it's not that the standards evolves rapidly. My biggest complaint is the complexity involved with jaxb, I find it really slow at warming up, perhaps due to classpath scanning.

I'll see how the three current PRs get handled first.

Sorry, this project is not actively maintained :pensive:

See #18 for further information.
