Several dependencies are now build using Java 8.
Newer version of Plexus IO are build with Java 8,
and more importantly the version we use for
Common Compress requires Java 8 as well.
So essentially you need Java 8 to run Plexus Archiver anyway.

one question: do you know since when we need Java 8, even if we did not document it?

we definitively need to document the prerequisites history, as discussed on dev@maven...

Since 4.2.6. It appears that commons-compress 1.21 requires Java 8. When I did the release looks like I've missed this or just forgot to document it - to be honest I don't recall the compress upgrade. I'll update the release notes. I'll keep in mind to check the prerequisites of the dependencies before doing an release.
