-------------------------------------
Java 7 would be reasonable for now. [~rfscholte].
> update target JDK from 6 to 8

> Key: MPOM-222
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPOM-222
> Project: Maven POMs
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Samael Bate
> Priority: Major
>
> 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.
