Correct :-) Akka 2.3.x supports JDK6+ Akka 2.4.x supports JDK8+ We do not add new features to 2.3.x, those go into the master branch, which becomes Akka 2.4.x.

Also remember that using Scala gives you the even more conciseness and power as Java 8 APIs yet does not require Java 8 :-) Note: Akka 2.4 which we'll be rolling out rather soon will require JDK8. There is a ton of useful stuff we need to use from 8 to make Akka even better than it is today.

I am interested in learning if I can use both Scala and Akka with Java 7? What am I going to miss? How would I know looking at API(for Scala and Akka) if it is supported by Java 7?
