>
> Require Java 8 as the minimum supported JVM version for branch_5x.
> # Java 7 is already EOL'ed
> # Trunk is already at Java8
> # Important Solr components such as Jetty 9.3.x already require Java 8
> # Nashorn Javascript engine available in Java 8 is just so much faster and we
> may see more usage of JS inside Solr (SOLR-7576 etc.)
