Bug description:
  I'm an avid Java developer. And rely on the simplicity of Ubuntu +
  Eclipse + JDK (openjdk-7) for my main environment. A few days ago, JDK
  8 was released. How much would it take to see openjdk-8 as part of the
  official repository? I don't want to manually install it. I prefer it
  got updated through the Ubuntu's own update manager.

  I know there is a PPA with the Oracle JDK 8 but I prefer to stick with
  OpenJDK and not have to add new PPA's to my servers.
