Target: September 2016 => Released

Leverage features of Java 8. Eclipse Collections already uses Java 8 in test modules, but the main library targets Java 5 bytecode. By dropping support for older versions of Java, Eclipse Collections can benefit from new features and better integrate with the standard libraries.

• Make Eclipse Collections functional interfaces extend Java 8 functional interfaces
• Add new API methods that return Optional
• Add Java 8 feature compatible APIs such as reduce, reduceInPlace, summarize{Int/Float/Long/Double}
• Add Collectors2 utility class that contains Collector implementations that work well with Eclipse Collections types and algorithms.
• Use default methods to reduce lines of code and jar size

Schedule Plan:

• Early July: 8.0 Milestone 1 => Released
• Early Sep: 8.0 Release => Released

Target: April 2016 => Released

Make minor updates for OSS community engagement.

• Migrate the GS Collections Kata to the Eclipse Collections Kata.
• Provide instruction on migration from GS Collections to Eclipse Collections.
• Update Eclipse project files.

Target: January 2016 => Released

The initial release of Eclipse Collections. We're starting the version number at 7.0 since it's functionally equivalent to GS Collections 7.0 after migrating the project to the Eclipse Foundation.

• Replace Apache 2.0 license with EDL and EPL dual license.
• Convert package names, directory structures from "com.gs" to "org.eclipse".
• Remove the memory-tests module that rely on a third party library with a different license.
• Update author information, README.md, and any other strings which refer to GS Collections.
• Update README.md contents to be in line with Eclipse Collections.
• Configure git settings.
