Hi guys,

I'm good with defaulting to 2.10 and deprecating 2.8 also.

On a related topic SAMZA-16 (JDK 7 support) is looking long in the tooth and 
given JDK 6 EOL and JDK 8 imminence it'd be nice to validate on the platform. I 
did a few test builds of Samza on JDK 7 a while ago and found it was 
intermittently showing some test failures, maybe 1 build in 3. Happy to dig 
into this but curious if anyone else has investigated at all?

Garry

support

Hey Jakob,

Fair enough. I'm all for deleting code.

Cheers,
Chris
