Clearly, Achim talked about Java8 support of Karaf itself.
We can't support Java8 for all projects running in Karaf if they don't
support on their own.
My $0.02.

A quick follow-up to that: I had problems with Java 8 and JPA (more
specifically, OpenJPA enhancing of Java-8-targeted class files) - should
that work, or is that not part of the "full Java8 support" scope. That
would be completely fine, I just would like to know :-)

Hi,
yes with Karaf 3.0.2 you'll have full Java8 support.
The systembundle issue is also fixed on it.
So no need to hesitate.

I guess our main concern right now is risk - we're currently
working on a
minor point release, and our only reason for upgrading there is
to have full
Java 8 support. Would it be much riskier to upgrade to 3.0.2?
I recall that when we previously tried upgrading to Karaf 3.0.1,
there were
some significant problems - the console was completely broken on
Java 8, and
Karaf would always copy all the system bundles to the user's .m2
repository
(we do not want it touching that, nor making extraneous copies
of bundles).
As such, we went with Karaf 2.3.5 as these issues did not occur
there, and
our application will at least start on Java 8 (though some Karaf
functionality is still broken). Does Karaf 3.0.2 fix these problems?
