Hi, even if we do not need to do it right now, as many other ASF project I'd like to kick off a discussion for thoughts on moving the minimum Java requirement for Marmotta to Java 8. There are a two immediate reasons that make this seem wise:
1) Java 7 EOL and specifically for security fixes https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_7.xml 2) Key dependencies (Sesame, etc) moving to Java 8 soon... Now, item 1 does not mean we must move our minimum to Java 8 but item 2 will do. Java 8 offers some nice language enhancements which could be quite useful within the framework.
