Hello, Starting a vote based on the discuss thread [1] for moving branch-2 precommit/nightly test builds to openjdk8. After this change, the test phase for precommit builds [2] and branch-2 nightly build [3] will run on openjdk8. To maintain source compatibility, these builds will still run their compile phase for branch-2 on openjdk7 as they do now (in addition to compiling on openjdk8).
Vote will run for three business days until Thursday Feb 7 6:00PM PDT.
