[jsp-dev] What version should be specified for maven-compiler-plugin?

[Paul Nicolucci <pnicolucci@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I was looking over the Release Plan and I see that it states Java SE 8 should be used for the APIs  https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/jakartaee-platform/jakartaee9/JakartaEE9ReleasePlan

It looks like the api [1] and impl [2] specify 1.7

I'm not familiar with how the parent pom [3] is used but that specifies 1.5 in the maven-compiler-plugin.

Should we move some or all of these to 1.8?

Thanks,

Paul Nicolucci
