Hi, I support to upgrade to JDK8, because we can use some new features of JDK8.
For ShardingSphere 4.0.0, we are still using JDK7, and switch to JDK 8 for 4.1.x version of ShardingSphere. I think this is a good idea, but I recommend maintaining multiple versions. We don't need to add new features to the old version, but if we find some serious problems，we should fix it and release small version eg. 4.0.x.
