Hi folks,
We never really resolved a clear direction for our on-going plans in terms of
when to bump our minimum version. There was a poll on twitter back when this
discussion started:

I was interested in native interface default/private/static methods
(GROOVY-8299, GROOVY-9801, GROOVY-1) for Groovy 5. There was discussion on

holding us back quite like Java 7 support in Groovy 2.5 means no use of
lambdas, optional, functional interfaces, etc.
