Hello. Moving Struts 2.6 to JDK 8 source/target should probably be OK, but hopefully Struts 2.5.x would have an extended lifecycle to continue JDK 7 Struts 2 support.
Another option could be to initially release 2.6 with JDK 7 source/target and shortly afterwards move to a 2.7 master stream for JDK 8 source/target (allowing the 2.5.x branch to be retired sooner, keeping 2.6 as the JDK 7 line ?).
