Excellent news ! Probably a good idea to fill JIRAs to all of those. I would add:
- Remove the references in the website to Java 7 - Remove Java 7 and any related task from the CI - Update the docker dev build images (I will take this one since reproducible build is my pet project) - Upgrade the IOs who were still in older versions because of client compatibility. I remember SolfIO was one case but probably there are others.
