we are doing Java 8 alongside Java 7, but nobody is worrying about the java 8 build failing. (not enough people are worrying about java 7, either) switching to Java 8 only (with that source flag), is simply a matter of stopping the java 7 build and having everyone agree to care about jenkins trunk builds. > With regard to the unit test failures, maybe it's time for another fix-it day? > +1, though that was very much a patch backlog day. I want us all to care more about failing jenkins builds and react fast to failures
