Hello all,

This is (or maybe "was", it was awhile ago that I latest checked in on this 
issue) a long-standing problem for the Cobertura project and - 
correspondingly - the Cobertura Maven Plugin.

Cobertura uses the JavaNCSS library, and for that reason it does not play 
well with Java 8.
Not to mention the Java 9 transition which we are in process of undertaking 
all over the community.

For that reason - my 2 cents:

   1. The mojo-parent contains an active-by-default profile where cobertura 
   is used. I think we should make that profile inactive by default.
   2. While I really love the usability of the Cobertura coverage reports, 
   since it does not currently support Java 8 or Java 9, we could maybe 
   transition to Clover as a tool for code coverage. Since a few months, 
   Clover is made OpenSource by Atlassian and may hence be a better option. 
   While clover does not support Java 9 yet, it does support Java 8.

So .. we could transition away from projects using JavaNCSS until such time 
as the JavaNCSS is updated to cope with the latest major Java release. 
How do the rest of you feel?
