   > +1 to the changes so far, -1 to the title. Not sure we're ready for dropping building on JDK 8? And so far this does build fine with it.
   
   I understood, that the aim is to build with the "release" option from javac. That was added with java 9 and is not present on 8. It would be possible that ant emulates release 8 on JDK 8 by just using the classpath, but it would IMHO not be correct.
   
   Bumping target version is not that interesting to me.
