Matt Nelson commented on MNG-6399: ---------------------------------- {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 asĀ [~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}} > Lift JDK minimum to JDK 8 > ------------------------- > > Key: MNG-6399 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6399 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Task > Affects Versions: 3.6.0 > Reporter: Karl Heinz Marbaise > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 3.6.x-candidate > > > I would like to lift the minimum of Maven Core to JDK 8 (I think it's time).. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
