PL - yes Trillian has tested with CentOS6 + JDK8 with 4.10.0.0/master+. JRE/JDK8 are available in additional repositories on CentOS6 so at least for 4.10.0.0 (already votes, to be announced) we cannot deprecate it. However, we can discuss that for 4.11.0.0 and onwards. However, I think unless we're breaking major compatibilities such as API, upgrades etc. we should not call the next release 5.x.
