[Windup-users] Are you ready for Java 8? Windup about to move

[Roman Martin Gil]

Which RC version did you release? To test it .

The next 3/6 months will be enought for us working with Java 7, after that
it will be not needed because we will close the migration project (I hope )

Thank you very much for your help.

Regards
