Before long we'll be on Java 24, and if Maven would still be restricted to Java 7 it would feel completely antiquated, which on its turn would hinder new developers coming into the project. Just think of you wanting to contribute to a project today. You clone its source, ready to inspect it and find out where to start. Then horrors of horrors, it appears to be Java 1.0! Not even the collection framework would be there, everything being Vector and Hashtable, and that all because the maintainer 15 years ago saw zero benefit in updating tot Java 1.1. was (Author: arjan.tijms): I also think it would be a good idea to say something about baseline version updated in some formal way.

I am fine with having a policy that is clear and I think we need to ensure it works on LTS versions. I also think it should work on non-LTS version though. E.g. 9 and 10 (which it does) Adopting the module system looks more like busy work to me to be honest with little prospect for benefits making it worth the effort. was (Author: simpligility): I dont think we would get much benefit from adopting the module system and it would be a HUGE effort.
