It is not true that Java 7 updates are no longer available. Java 7 updates are available from Oracle for paying customers and from other vendors such as Azul for everyone.
My preference is not to move unless there's a clear reason to do so. Are there specific features in Java 8 that would be useful for Maven resolver? E.g. support for a new protocol that isn't available in Java 7 such as TLS 1.3?
