Thanks Tristan, do you need a jira for this?

I heard that Infinispan 8.0 might get integrated into WildFly 10.  I 
think that WildFly 10 might be somewhat time boxed (check with Jason on 
exact details of that :).  As such, we might also Hibernate 5.0 also 
integrated into WildFly 10 (if that fits into the schedule).  If 
Hibernate ORM 5.0 doesn't get integrated in time for WildFly 10, then we 
would likely try to keep using a Hibernate 4.3.x release.

My next question is whether the hibernate-infinispan [1] will need 
changes for 8.0?  And whether that could be done in Hibernate 4.3.x + 
5.x, or if those changes need to be done in Hibernate 5.x (current 
Hibernate ORM master) only.  This question is probably best answered by 
Galder (expert on the hibernate-infinispan module) but input from others 
are welcome.  :-)

Thanks,
Scott
