------------------------------------------------------------------
bq. what would be the plan how to support them when needed?
I personally don't plan on maintaining older versions, however I am fine with
creating a branch similar to what we have for 3.2.8 (latest version supporting
Java 7). Then everyone may backport patches there. However given the history
that I am pretty much the only committer on FileVault I think it is rather
unlikely there will be another Java 8 compatible release....
bq. the new version should be either 3.9 or even 4.0.
Yes, increasing major makes sense, so 4.0 will be the new version, however this
ticket is for the Maven Plugin, so your comment rather belongs to JCRVLT-764.
