Joel Bernstein commented on LUCENE-6722:
----------------------------------------

The SQL Interface (SOLR-7560) is currently in trunk. This feature was 
originally slated for Solr 5.3 but I had to revert because the Presto libraries 
relied on Java 8. I now have a version that uses Calcite instead of Presto 
almost ready to release with Solr 5.4. 

If 6.0 is really that close I'm inclined to release the Presto code that is 
already in trunk with Solr 6. I'll just work on new features of the SQL 
interface in trunk until the 6.0 release. 

I've been holding off on updating the CHANGES.txt until I successfully 
backported to 5x, but if the decision is made to release trunk in the next 
couple months of I can just add all the tickets involved in the SQL interface 
under Solr 6 changes.

> 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.)
