I went ahead and started up an RFC thread for bumping the min GCC version to 4.8. It seems like moving the minimum Clang version could be proposed separately.

Thanks, Teresa

So I'd first like to understand whether we still want to keep gcc 4.7 as a supported version, or move to 4.8 as was suggested. What is the process for making that change?

Same as usual: propose on the list, and hope that no one has any blocking issues. Going to 4.9 failed because many people had reservations, but IIRC, none of those people had reservations against 4.8.

If we stick with 4.7 we should have a bot otherwise it will likely stop working again pretty quickly. Yes, same for Clang. I suggest we also move to Clang 3.4 as the minimum and install a quick bot with that. cheers, --renato
