I would also ask, why Core is still build with old maven versions ? :) imho it would be nice from dev perspective to require Java 8 to build maven core (keep jdk level for source/target at 7 and still enforce this with maven-enforcer) and Maven 3.5.2. From Ops perspective, there will be less build jobs also.
Sure, it make sense to run its-tests based on diffrent jdk and run build of diffrent projects, diffrent plugin versions to find compability issues. We know that never maven has many bugfixes but if we keep compability with Maven 3.0.5 we cannot migrate core internals to @Inject, slf4j and maybe more interesting features.
