It's nice to see this getting cut out @jeromevdl :D
Couple of other bits I found:

There's a bunch of java 1.8 refs in the metrics docs still, starting here:

powertools-lambda-java/docs/core/metrics.md

Line 31 in 7190546

Depending on your version of Java (either Java 1.8 or 11+), the configuration slightly changes.

as well as large_messages.md and validation.md

build.gradle.kts for the kotlin example appears to depend on a java1.8 specific bit org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8:1.8.10.

• metrics was done in the metrics v4 PR
• validation is done in the batch validation PR
• I missed the other 2
