As a developer I would like the Bookmarks Portlet to have Java 8 runtime support so that I can use the portlet in environments that use a Java 8 runtime.
This task will involve upgrading to the latest Spring Framework 3.2.x GA release (unless major issues arise, for which upgrade to slightly less recent version may be okay).

I did a quick investigation to see what might need to be done if we moved up to Spring 4.1.4. Unfortunately, the spring SimpleFormController was deprecated in Spring 3 and removed in favor of annotation based controllers in Spring 4. Therefore, further upgrades to newer releases of Spring will require re-work of the code base. There are nine (9) controller classes extending this class that no longer exists in Spring 4. I didn't investigate further, so I can't comment on whether this is a fairly straight forward exercise or not.
