0.5.0 Limelight application fails to load due to classfile version

#158

Perhaps it was built with Java 6 and my default is still Java 5? This popped up as a "Startup Error" dialog on OS X:

    You're right. 0.5.0 was built with Java 6. We've since added a build target for Java 5 and version 0.5.1+ should all work fine. More recent gems are available on gemcutter. Updated installers will be released shortly.
