Will Ubuntu ever have Java 8?
Sooner or later I'm going to have to get into learning Java 8 features yet Ubuntu still has 6 and 7 in the repos. Oracle - Larry! - where . are . you . at???

The JDK8 is available for Linux.
You won't find it in the official repos, though, because they have the OpenJDK implementation. For serious java development you should use the Oracle one.
