Which Java version(s) should be supported for release 3.0?
It would simplify testing if we only support JDK 8.
Because of changes such as the package renaming, I expect users to
need to do their own development and testing to use the new release,
so I don't see much additional burden in switching to the current Java
version.
Opinions?
It has been tested on Java 6, 7 & 8, openJDK 7, J9 on the following
architectures: intel, sparc and arm, with the following OS's: Linux,
Solaris 10 and Windows.
Testing on various architectures, OS's or platforms helps to flush out
latent bugs, that could potentially affect other's but don't present
during testing.
