Java SE Version <-> Java EE Version compatibility matrix

I noticed today's announcement of the coming end of public updates for Java SE 6 at The Java Source. I currently work on a web application that uses Java EE 5, which prompted the question in my mind if I should be pushing for updating to Java EE 6.

Given that I currently build using OpenJDK 7 and deploy on Tomcat 7, I suspect that the compatibility matrix looks like this:

    EE5 EE6 EE7
SE5  x
SE6  x   x
SE7  x   x   x

Is it OK for our project to keep basing our code on Java EE 5 and utilize features from Java SE 6 or Java SE 7?

Yes, that's fine, though you might want to upgrade your Java EE version at some point as well.
