LGTM. Where will we answer questions, on scala-internals? We could start the thread ourselves and add a link to it.

## Background
* We can’t have one Scala binary version target two different Java versions without further artifactId name mangling. Even if maven did have support for specifying the required Java version, this fork would be a big burden on the eco-system. Thus, the split between required Java versions has to align with the Scala (binary) version.

"eco-system" --> "ecosystem"
