Samael Bate created MPOM-222:
--------------------------------
Summary: update target JDK from 6 to 8
Key: MPOM-222
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPOM-222
Project: Maven POMs
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Samael Bate
currently the maven-pom set's compiler source and compiler target to JDK 6.
Java 6 is already EOL and even 7 is old. Please just jump straight to setting
Java 8 as the target. Otherwise all the projects that inherit it are stuck
trying to support jdk 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 which is bound to be a
burden.
