Jan Høydahl commented on LUCENE-6722:
-------------------------------------
Yea, guess that's just how it is these days, however "wrong" it feels to
release a new major version without major features :) We can hope Marks is
right that by the time we're actually ready for a 6.0 release, some unique
stuff will have materialized too!
+1 to work on releasing trunk as Lucene 6
> Java 8 as the minimum supported JVM version for branch_5x

> Key: LUCENE-6722
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-6722
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Shalin Shekhar Mangar
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 5.4

>
> Require Java 8 as the minimum supported JVM version for branch_5x.
> # Java 7 is already EOL'ed
> # Trunk is already at Java8
> # Important Solr components such as Jetty 9.3.x already require Java 8
> # Nashorn Javascript engine available in Java 8 is just so much faster and we
> may see more usage of JS inside Solr (SOLR-7576 etc.)
