----------------------------------
{quote}The deploy plugin problem has nothing to do with JDK 8 or not
{quote}
I provided that example to illustrate where some of the new language feature
would've made the implementation easier. I don't want to get off topic and
debate the details of the fix here.
I would like to stay focused on advocating for the JDK uplift or at a minimum
as [~nhoj.patrick] suggested a formalization of process of when Maven will be
uplifted
For reference, the current baseline of 7 was uplifted with
[3.3.1|https://maven.apache.org/docs/history.html] on {{2015-03-18}} which was
1 month before [7 was publicly end of
life|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_version_history#Java_7_updates] on
{{2015-04-14}}
