Ok, then AFAIK it will not be a "work" branch but just an aggregator branch so I see two good compromises:
1. use tomee 7.0 (we just add a mp module with tomee-maven-plugin Vn-1 to import MP impls and bundle it), no compile issue, tomee 7.0 stays java 7 and MP is aligned on java 8 2. we make 7.1 directly a branch and we release it at the same time than 8.0.0 wdyt?
