+<h3>M2 - Java7 weaving support</h3>
+<p>Some preliminary work has been done to support Java7. Java7 class files must contain the necessary extra verifier support attributes
+in order to load successfully on a Java7 VM - the attributes were only optional in Java6. It is possible to force loading of classes missing
+the attributes but that requires use of a -XX option. AspectJ 1.6.12.M2 should create these for you if you weave Java7 level class
+files. Nothing has been done yet to rebase AspectJ on a version of the Eclipse compiler that supports Java7 language constructs -
+that will happen after Eclipse 3.7.1 is out.
