> For Samza 12 we are going to use Java source compatibility 1.8. 
> To do so, there are a number of minor updates needed. A couple that come to mind:
> 1. The bin/check-all.sh script should no longer run java 1.7 versions
> 2. Documentation including but not limited to:
>   * http://samza.apache.org/startup/download/
>   * http://samza.apache.org/contribute/tests.html
>   * <project_dir>/release.md
> 3. Checkstyle [SAMZA-1015]
