Konrad Windszus updated SLING-11842:
------------------------------------
Description:
Given that Java 8 is EOL since quite some time, and soon Java 21 will be the
default LTS release we should drop support for Java 8 (that allows to get rid
of some profiles and plugins like
https://www.mojohaus.org/animal-sniffer/animal-sniffer-maven-plugin/).
Even the newest JDK21 LTS still allows to build for Java 8, so this only
restrict the Java versions being used for building (not for running).
