I'd like to compile the latest release, not the head. So how can
clone/download 0,95?
I want to try it with Java 7. Oracle just announced a LOT of fixes for the
various versions but somewhere in the article is a statement that Java6 is
no longer being supported. And ES is compiled using 6 and won't run on 7.
Time to compile it myself.

We run the standard distribution of Elasticsearch on Java 7. It works just
fine.

Hello!
You can download the version you want from the proper branch/tag on github, for example 0.90.5 - [https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/tree/v0.90.5](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/tree/v0.90.5)
However, keep in mind that ElasticSearch will run properly on Java 7, apart from update 40, which was reported to cause issues with Lucene ([https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5212](http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-dev/207416)).

thank you for the tip.
Now about why I needed it, I was having a trasport serialization exception
problem.
Turned out that the designer or subsequent maintainer of my osem[http://www.compass-project.org/docs/latest/reference/html/core-osem.html](http://www.compass-project.org/docs/latest/reference/html/core-osem.html)entity store had set the server address to our QC server to allow testing
the osem code from any machine. The reason: CloudBees DEV@cloud does not
allow running elasticSearch on local host. So we THOUGHT that we were
testing the new updated version of osem code against our local ES
instances, on the same version of the JVM, mabye even the SAME JVM. We
were not because we were using the remote ES instance.
