----------------------------------------

             Summary: generate maven.compiler.target 8 instead of 1.8
                 Key: MARCHETYPES-81
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MARCHETYPES-81
             Project: Maven Archetype Bundles
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.4
            Reporter: Herve Boutemy
             Fix For: 1.5


target bytecode is configured as 1.x because it is an habit from old times with 
JDK 1.4

since JDK 5, javac supports 5 as an alias for 1.5: this is the same for 6, 7 
and 8

and since 9, only 9 exists, not even 1.9

configuring 8 instead of 1.8 gives better habit for nowadays
