What is the planned release date of v2.7.0? > [Umbrella] Support Java 8 in Hadoop > ----------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-11090 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11090 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Mohammad Kamrul Islam > Assignee: Mohammad Kamrul Islam > > Java 8 is coming quickly to various clusters.
