Thanks Roman and Darrel, it's good to see this moving forward!

I just filed a new bug against this branch. The branch doesn't build
depending on what JDK you are using because of a bad import:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-82

I'd like to see this and GEODE-81 cleaned up before the branch merges to
develop. Otherwise, I think the GEODE-8 branch looks good to merge to me.
I'll send out review requests for these bugs shortly - Kishor has already
provided a patch for GEODE-81.
