[jira] [Updated] (MJAVADOC-675) Require Java 8

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-675?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Robert Scholte updated MJAVADOC-675:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
The codebase is overloaded with nested for-loops and if-statements, making it very hard to maintain. MJAVADOC-634 would introduce set of nested for-loops and if-statements, whereas Java 8 streams would clean this up and make it more readable.
Let's not stick to Java 7 and introduce more technical dept. Assuming only a handful of Maven users is still on Java 7, most likely nobody will notice this change.
