Re: [hibernate-dev] Hibernate ORM and Java 8 usage
The former. People commit things that already assume the move to Java 8
locally to build (and test). But at the moment we have not formalized
that, and so that causes problems when we import into an IDE - the imported
IDE project is built for 1.6 compliance and so everything we try in the IDE
fails.

WDYM by "move to Java8" exactly? Requiring it at Hibernate's build
time, or also at runtime in user apps?
