I'm not sure if this pull will complete. Oracle has changed their URL directory for JDK 8 since they've added/changed the licensing agreement. The previous java8 URL that was curled was "https://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/#{version.before_comma}-#{version.after_comma.before_colon}/#{version.after_colon}/jdk-#{version.before_comma}-macosx-x64.dmg".
The new java8 URL should be "https://download.oracle.com/otn/java/jdk/#{version.before_comma}-#{version.after_comma.before_colon}/#{version.after_colon}/jdk-#{version.before_comma}-macosx-x64.dmg".
Although, this may be submitted with the pull request. If not, then a maintainer making the change would be awesome. Thanks.

The new URL for downloading the JDK 8 package has broken the previous method of agreeing to Oracle's terms and licensing agreement. Currently, it requires logging into an Oracle account. Perhaps, java8 can be changed to an alternate download, if available, or moving it to OpenJDK.

As of now, I believe that this cask may be dead for distributing version 8 since Oracle has closed public distribution and OpenJDK doesn't provide archived versions prior to 9. Oracle requires creating and logging in with an account that prohibits any unauthorized distribution of its version by accepting a personal use agreement. My suggestion is to change the URL reference to an authorized source, good luck, or just remove the cask.
