@rhtyd @pdion891 I apologize for my delayed reply as I am on vacation ATM.
We had previously agreed not to require Java8 until 5.0.0 which is scheduled
for the end of 2016. 4.x should be able to run on Java7 and Java8.
Furthermore, Spring4 does not require Java8 so I don't see why such a Java
upgrade would conflated with a Spring upgrade.
@rhytd I think it makes sense to reduce scope of this PR to Soring only.
In a separate PR, we can address running tests for 4.x on both Java7 and Java8
which needs to be done for LTS as well. Does that make sense?
