My goal regarding Java compatibility is to support last 2 versions. Since Java 9 was released I am considering upgrading to Java 8.

Moreover latest versions of Jackson and Jersey already don't support Java 7.

What do you thing? Is Java 7 still needed?

It's fine for me/my company. we're already on java8 (for quite some time). So no issue for us!

Note that java's release cycle will soon accelerate. Supposedly there'll be releases every 6 months, and a new month.year release name, starting with java 18.3 in march 2019: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/eol-135779.html

It would be nice. I would have really liked to implement my class enum feature with streams.

My company uses Java 8 across the board and is looking to Java 9, I'm all in favor of this.
