> We should move to Java 8 as a minimum requirement.
> Java 7 is EOL'ed for more than 3 years now: [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html]
> Many Apache projects are adopting Java 8 as a minimum requirement, for instance:
>  * Hadoop 3: HADOOP-11858
>  * Hbase 2: HBASE-15624
>  * Flume 1.8: FLUME-2945
> This change affects the Ant and the Gradle build too.
