Will JDK8 become a requirement before Jena 2? I would hope not immediately,
JDK7 is still a very large install base (if not the largest).

No one has suggested it. It is not that long ago we moved to requiring Java 7.

Generally, it's been "last 2 supported versions" though it's easier to have that rule then apply it as it needs to factor in take up across all JVMs.

(The Web says) Java 9 is scheduled for Autum 2016.

Since jena is reasonably progressive wrt jdk I'd probably give that
move an extra thought: jdk8 makes most of guava "obsolete", outdated
or cumbersome. In our jdk8-based code base we generally found apache
commons-lang/io + java8 to be a much more pleasing combination.

I've added Guava as a managed dependency in jena-parent.  The license is
