Just take this one: " Of course having a TomEE-7.1 which bumps the requirement to java8 is cool. And I fully support that. "
Not at all "I fully support TomEE 7.1 for MP". Don't get me wrong, I'm not against 7.1, I even proposed something very closed months ago (before we got the 8 branch) but I'm against creating a branch and play with the versioning policy until we can justify it by something affecting users+being justified technically. I don't think we got here yet. Take it as "how would it affect users?"+"how does it affects us?". First answer is clearly "no impact" - we are already in prod with j8 - and last one is pretty much the same technically AFAIK.
