yes, as discussed twenty times or so, we can't change the minimum JDK

I don't share your optimism that 2.1.8 will be the last 2.1 release.
Realistically, we need to create a 2.2 branch that is stable (most
likely, this just means not bringing in the OSGi stuff) and then release
a couple of versions before it can really be called stable and we can
move on from 2.1. If we go back to the "release often" philosophy then
I would expect at least a 2.1.9 release at the end of the year at the
same time as a second or third 2.2 release.
