Strongly agree with Elliotte. Rather than rewriting existing, working
code, I'd rather see issues addressed.

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?

Hi to all,
based on the previous vote to require Java 8 for Maven Core - I would like
to propose setting the same minimum for Maven Resolver 2.0
Maven Resolver is a base component to solve dependencies for Maven. It can
also be used separately from Maven for other projects.
Because Java 7 updates are no longer available, the market is also moving
towards using the newer version of Java 8/11.
Practically the Core requirement means that Resolver has little chance of
being used in Java 7 (see tricks to connect to Central).
Benefits - more programmers can practice coding while improving our
codebase.
What's your opinion on the subject?

Kind regards
