I'd prefer moving to Java6, since there are still companies using Java6 or Java7.Is Java8 really required to implement some of the new features?The more JDK's we support, the more people can make use of Ant!
However, since I'm not that active in the Ant development, I won't block the vote for this:-0 Maarten Van: Stefan Bodewig <bode...@apache.org> Aan: dev@ant.apache.org Verzonden: dinsdag 22 maart 13:11 2016 Onderwerp: [VOTE] Adopt Java8 as Baseline for 1.10 on master Branch Hi all after the recent discussion, I'd like to propose the following: * create a branch 1.9.x that we use for Java5 compatible maintenance releases - with Jenkins Matrix Builds, of course. * change the version number of the master branch to 1.10.0alpha (-SNAPSHOT, whatever) and make Java8 the new baseline for that - with Gump and Jenkins Matrix Builds for Java8 (and 9 once it becomes available). Please cast your votes, will be open for about three days.
