> Wicket 7.x is being built with Java 7, not with Java 8.

Support to build with Java 8 has been implemented in the past. Why is
removing that not a regression? Especially because you don't nail
things to JDK 7 like WicketStuff seems to do using toolchains.

Your own docs don't distinguish between runtime and building things as
well: 

> This Wicket version requires at least the following Java version:
> JDK 7.0 or newer.

https://wicket.apache.org/start/wicket-7.x.html#status

There are others building Wicket 7 with Java 8 as well and you did
commit changes to support that:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-6615
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/wicket-dev/201811.mbox/%3cabaaada6-4581-e009-607f-4ecd04b88...@meiers.net%3E

Doesn't make much sense to commit support for JDK 8 more than once
and remove it "silently" afterwards. Especially because the current
master for Wicket 9 contains support to be build with JDK 12 and 13 as
well instead of JDK 9 only. Any plans to remove that already? :-)

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Thorsten Schöning
