Brock Noland commented on HIVE-7444: ------------------------------------ +1 on the updates. Thank you for taking care of this. We should state that version 0.15 will be Java 7 or newer since by the time it's release we'll actually only be a month or two from Java 7 EOL and users would be strongly advised to start moving to Java 8.
