Hi, all, Personly, I think we SkyWalking should not support JDK 1.6 any more. First, More and more tech company does not support jdk1.6, We can not say we follow them, but that is a trend. Second, from code management, we may make our code more simple and more efficient. About 1.7, i think we may listen all dev's voice. About 1.8, i think we should support, Because they are used by many people now. As jdk version updates so quickly so many company have not follow the latest version. I think we may support for a while for jdk1.8.
