The real question is:
"At what date are we going to allow code to be added to the product that
will not run on the Java 7 jvm?"
or
"At what date will releases cease to be tested for their ability to run
on a Java 7 jvm."
As soon as someone adds lamdas or streams or any of the new Java 8
features, OFBiz will not run on earlier jvms.
Certainly, there is no reason not to recommend that new installation or
existing installations move to the Java 8 jvm.

I think it's time for us to declare Java 8 our recommended version.
