Hi fellow devs & users, any comment on this one?
I do remember that past decisions to drop/upgrade to certain JDKs yielded hefty discussions. Personally I would not mind going to Java8 minimum during build and runtime. Any opinions?

However I also see commons-io 2.8.0 that requires Java *1.8* or later. Make a clear decision on the minimum version of Java and upgrade or downgrade dependencies accordingly. FYI Apache Maven requires Java 1.7 so I'd prefer not to go higher than that. ``` <dependency> <groupId>commons-collections</groupId> <artifactId>commons-collections</artifactId> <!-- Later versions require Java 1.6+ --> <version>3.2.2</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>commons-io</groupId> <artifactId>commons-io</artifactId> <version>2.8.0</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId> <artifactId>commons-lang3</artifactId> <!-- later versions require Java 1.6+ --> <version>3.5</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId> <artifactId>commons-compress</artifactId> <!-- later versions require Java 1.6+ --> <version>1.19</version> </dependency> ``` -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
