Note that I have resolved the issue without a PR since the fix was to the CI job config (as per my previous comment on this JIRA)

Yes that is what I have done - the only thing I disabled in the particular CI job are the tests that require a WildFly container:- if we build on Java 7 and then run arquillian tests using an Arquillian WildFly Managed Container Adapter that connects to a WildFly that was built using Java 8 then we get errors because Arquillian says "it cannot start container".
The CI job that tests we build and run on IBMs J9 Java7 JVM (that's a mouthful) should continue to pass. However if, in the future, a developer were to use a Java 8 feature then this CI job will start failing (unless IBM decide to support their J9 Java 8 compiler on linux).

-----------------------------------
That's WildFly and I do understand why they're moving to 8. However, if someone wants to build a component project using 7 then why wouldn't we allow that within that project until/unless we add features only available in 8?

----------------------------------------
Not yet but but forum thread https://developer.jboss.org/thread/260122 makes the decision to allow Java 8 for feature development whilst keeping with Java 7 for bug fixes.
I have changed the CI job to compile and run our surefire tests on the Java 7 ibm and skip any tests that require a wildfly container.

-----------------------------------
Is there anything in Narayana that requires Java8 though? If not then why not still allow that at build time?
