With +1s by Jan, Dominique and my own implied one - and no -1s, the vote
has passed.

all of them should have been done already.

Hasn't been done since Gump runs on Java8 only.

I added some notes to Stefans list.
Some more to do?

Jan

* create a branch 1.9.x that we use for Java5 compatible maintenance
  releases
* create Jenkins Matrix Build: win/linux java5-8
* create Gump Job Java5+Ant1.9.x
* change the version number of the master branch to 1.10.0alpha
  (-SNAPSHOT, whatever) and make Java8 the new baseline for that

available)

* update faq#javaversion
* maybe add a note on a prominent place?

This one is running right now - OpenJDK isn't available but Oracle JDK
is. The trick was to use "latest1.8" rather than "jdk 1.8". Oh my.

I'll make a similar change to the 1.9.x Jenkins build.

Done.

Mostly done.

The Java8 build on Windows fails. It always did but was disabled, the
comment was "Java8 cannot be installed on Windows" - looking through the
logs I can see Java8 has been installed (or claimed to have been
installed) but the build fails with "The system cannot find the path
specified" and I'm led to believe javac isn't found.

https://builds.apache.org/job/Ant-Build-Matrix-master/jdk=jdk-1.8.0,label=Windows/831/console

I'll try to debug this - since we really do want Windows builds - but
any help is very much appreciated.
