Sergei Panko created ARCHETYPE-625:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Set java 8 as default version for
maven-archetype-quickstart
Key: ARCHETYPE-625
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-625
Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Archetypes
Affects Versions: 3.2.1
Reporter: Sergei Panko
Currently the default Java version for *maven-archetype-quickstart* is *1.7*
which is considered as obsolete today.
Most of the projects are written using *Java* *8 and 11*

And I think that Java 7 being default version in the most popular archtype is
quite outdated behaviour.
