Dear All,
Early notice about our future plans: Unity will be moved to Java 8 from
the release 1.7.0.
Note that 1.7.0 is not the next release, which will be 1.6.0. 1.7.0 can
be expected no sooner then at the end of May.
Current support for Java 8 in distributions is improving: already now
Centos 6 and 7 contains Java 8 as well as Fedora. Debian stable does not
but Java 8 can be installed from additional repositories (besides the
Oracle packages which are always available, however less convenient for
administrators).
Best regards,
Krzysztof
