@markhamstra the PMC doesn't decide these things. In extreme cases it could
be put to a vote. Code changes all work on lazy consensus by default.
I actually saw no direct opposition to dropping Java 7 support or 2.10. In
both cases a few people brought up the counterargument for discussion. I'm on
the PMC and support both for example . I walked away with a very different
impression.
The output of that thread seemed clearly that 7 support goes, with many
informal +1 and no objection. I think we should have a follow on thread for
2.10 for separate clarity about any clear objections.
But this kind of PR is OK as a WIP. It can even be a data point showing
the resulting change.
