Re: [jgit-dev] [egit-dev] [RFC] releases until Mars (June 2015)

Can you share the stats you use? I am really interested to see how java
7 to 8 rate changed over last year or so.

-1 for Java 8 in 4.0. I'm not sure the adoption rate on client side is fast enough.

If we go Java 7 in 4.0, does it mean we will merge optional 7 fragments with the core plugin?

As we have to declare participation in Mars release train until M4
(in Dec) we should
decide which releases we plan until June 2015.

I propose we release
- 3.6 in Dec 2014
- 3.7 in late Feb or early March 2015 (before EclipseCon)
- 4.0 in June 2015

I think it's time for a major version bump to get out API changes
like
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/27325/
get rid of some long time deprecated API
and consider discontinuing support for old Java versions, java 5
maybe even java 6 ?

+1 for requiring Java >= 7 in 4.0. By the time we release 4.0,
Oracle's
Java 6 will have been EOL for more than 2 years (since Feb 2013):


By the time EGit 4.0 comes out even Java 7 will be EOL. I think 7 is a
good base but is it worth considering Java 8 as a base instead?
