We need to drop support for JDK 7, because Apache POI 4.0 will support only JDK8+
This also means that we should investigate new JDK8 functionality, such as Lambdas (e.g. for the Spark examples in Java)

Scala 2.11 only has basic support for JDK8 as well as Scala 2.12 has only full support:

All 2018 releases will support JDK 8 as a minimum, no JDK 7 support in 2018

part of 1.2.0, note that JDK7 and Scala 2.10 may still work, but we do not test extensively and it may not work for all features
