Looking at this I realise that Java 8 potentially presents a problem for
Elephas because the entire Jena 3 stack is Java 8 and so Elephas has to be Java
8 yet most Hadoop clusters are still Java 6/7 which is going to create issues
for end users.
However other than simply documenting this there is not much that we can do
about it since recompiling Jena 3 for Java 7 is no longer an option either
because of all the Java 8 code changes that have gone in
