Florian Brunner commented on HADOOP-11090:
------------------------------------------
Please note: Oracle Java SE 7 is planned going EoL on April 2015, so in 3-4
months from now: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html
It would be great if Hadoop would work well with Java SE 8 by then, since
developers are encouraged to update to Java SE 8 if they don't have Oracle
support contracts.
What is the planned release date of v2.7.0?
