Julian Reschke updated OAK-9427: -------------------------------- Description: Users of 1.4 who can move to Java 8 should switch to the latest stable release (currently 1.38.0). Users of 1.4 who need support for Java 7 can switch to Oak 1.6.20, with the caveat that this branch will require Java 8 with the next release (1.6.21). In general, users of 1.4 are encouraged to switch to a platform compatible with Java 8 (or newer). What it'll mean in actual actions: - links will be removed from the download page - news will be posted on the homepage - [announce] will be sent to jr-user, jr-dev, oak-dev - branch and tags WILL stay there - label "candidate_oak_1_4" will be removed See also http://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/roadmap.html was: Users of 1.4 who can move to Java 8 should switch to the latest stable release (currently 1.38.0).
