[logback-user] logback version 1.3.x and Java 8

[Ceki]

Hello All,

Two weeks ago I started a poll [1] asking whether logback 1.3.x series 
should upgrade to Java 8 or remain with Java 7.

Out of 400 responses, 370 participants favor upgrading to Java 8 
(92.5%), with 24 participants favoring remaining with Java 7 (6%), and 4 
participants declaring that they do not intend to move to logback 1.3.x 
series anyway.

Given the strong majority, I think we have a mandate to upgrading to 
Java 8 for the logback 1.3.x series.

Comments welcome,
