[keycloak-dev] Java 8?

[Boleslaw Dawidowicz]

WildFly 10 is on what we'll need to align although it rather defines minimum to support. Question is if we package with WF 10 which support only Java 8 will it be practical (and possible) to maintain compat with 7

I would def keep 7 for adapters longer.
