Arpit Agarwal commented on HADOOP-11090: ---------------------------------------- bq. I'm hoping to bump the JDK min version to JDK8 in trunk pretty soon, since as noted earlier JDK7 is EOL this month. Hi Andrew, it should probably be put to vote (unless the community already agreed to it and I missed it). I assume branch-2 remains on Java 7 for the foreseeable future.
