I think this easier done in a straw poll than in an email conversation. I created one at: http://www.strawpoll.me/12535073
Though I prefer Java 8 most of the time I have to work on Java 7. A lot of the infrastructure I work on still runs Java 7, one of the companies I build a prototype for a while back just updated to Java 7 2 years ago. I doubt we can ditch Java 7 support any time soon if we want to make it easy for companies to use Flink. cheers Martin <http://www.strawpoll.me/12535073> [http://www.strawpoll.me/images/poll-results/12535073.png]<http://www.strawpoll.me/12535073> What Java version do you use with Fli... - Straw Poll<http://www.strawpoll.me/12535073> www.strawpoll.me Vote Now!

Hi all! I would like to get a feeling how much Java 7 is still being used among Flink users. At some point, it would be great to drop Java 7 support and make use of Java 8's new features, but first we would need to get a feeling how much Java 7 is still used. Would be happy if users on Java 7 respond here, or even users that have some insights into how widespread they think Java 7 still is. Thanks, Stephan
