@michaeldrogalis: Looks like it's going to require more of a change than just bringing in or excluding dependencies (my first time dealing with this type of issue, so check out my discussion in #beginners with Alex if you want to see if we missed anything). I'm happy using 1.8 so don't put any extra work into it on my account.

@shaun-mahood Responded in #beginners. Let me know if I can help further.
