Gary Gregory commented on IO-607:
---------------------------------
- One justification is that Java 7 has been EOL for a long time.
- Another is that it makes the component more attractive to contributors: You
do not have to install and EOL'ed version of Java, you might want to use Java 8
APIs in contributions.
> Update from Java 7 to Java 8
