Hi Jagadish, As I recall compiling samza (with JDK7) during bin/grid bootstrap resulted in compiler error on https://github.com/apache/samza/blob/bfba03b7bea731ffe7db1ed7e2a6441369e2cd9a/samza-core/src/main/scala/org/apache/samza/config/TaskConfig.scala#L97
getOrDefault() is a java 8 feature (AFAIK) I will try to confirm and get back. --Maurice On Sun, Mar 13, 2016 at 7:47 PM, Jagadish Venkatraman < jagadish1...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Maurice, > > Appreciate the feedback. > > Creating a Jira should not require any privileges as long as you create an > account in Apache Jira. > > Could you please elaborate on the problems you encountered (and which ones > where Java/Maven specific)?
