Hi everyone, I'm just looking for consensus on this topic. Only jackson-annotations and jackson-core support Java6 in Jackson v2.13. Other jackson libs typically require Java8 already. My reasons for looking to move jackson-core to support a min of Java8 for Jackson 2.14 include the following: * Java6 is no longer widely supported * jackson-core v2.13 already has code from classes that only appeared in Java7 (eg java.lang.Objects) * there is some talk about introducing support for faster serialization/deserialization of numbers that uses non JRE/JDK classes - see https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-core/issues/577 for context * many of these classes and jars require Java8 and in some cases, even more recent Java versions
