I have started work on translating the util.clj to java (STORM-1226). I see
some instances when translating the functional behavior of clojure to Java
requires code that is already part of java 8.
For instance, there are many cases where a predicate function is passed around
(e.g. in find-first). I can go ahead and implement a Predicate interface and
use that, but Java 8 has already exactly that functionality implemented.
Would it make sense to move to Java 8 for the post-clojure branch 2.x?
