Re: Extras Addon Pack
When Java 8 becomes official and available to the public then the autopatcher releases will updated to reflect this... so for the time being the decision is yours to which Java you keep installed

Re: Java 8 released
Don't hold your breath for this being included in auotpatcher. Been doing some reading and it appears that Java 8 was supposedly been released back in 2012 but with the security loopholes in Version 7 was held back until these were fixed..

Re: Java 8 released
As of April 8, 2014 Microsoft stopped supporting Windows XP and therefore it is no longer a supported platform. XP users will be unable to install Java 8. Windows users must upgrade to Windows Vista or later to install Java 8.
