Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Kepler SR3 for Java 8?

[Igor Fedorenko <igor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are you talking about separate update site with java 8 patches for
kepler or full-blown release?

In any case, m2e does not plan to participate. Anyone who wants to use
m2e with java 8 support on kepler will have to install m2e 1.5
milestone/snapshot build from m2e specific repository.
