Well, that depends on the definition of “outdated”. If it is meant as “no further publicly released updates from Oracle”, then it _is_ already outdated. If we understand it as “only a negligible amount of our users use it”, then it is not outdated until the currently estimated 25% of Java 7 users shrunk to below 5%. But since even the newest Eclipse release does only require Java 7 and not 8, that’s not too likely to happen soon.
