> currently the maven-pom set's compiler source and compiler target to JDK 6. 
> Java 6 is already EOL and even 7 is old. Please just jump straight to setting 
> Java 8 as the target. Otherwise all the projects that inherit it are stuck 
> trying to support jdk 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 which is bound to be a 
> burden.
