Unfortunately the original plan of leaving openjdk:8 and openjdk:11-based 
images alone isn't going to work. Upstream has recently announced that even 
the old openjdk:8 and openjdk:11 images are being deprecated and will no 
longer receive updates (security and otherwise).

So that means we need to release new clojure images even for those older 
JDK versions, and it is strongly recommended that you move to them.

Similar to what we previously did for the Java 17+ images, we'll be moving 
the Java 8 & 11 images to the eclipse-temurin upstream. The biggest change 
there will be the switch from Debian to Ubuntu inside the images. Some of 
your images will still just work, but many will break. All need to be 
tested.

You can control the timing of when you make the transition by ensuring you 
specify the distro in your Docker tags. For example: 
clojure:openjdk-11-tools-deps-slim-bullseye or 
clojure:openjdk-8-lein-2.9.8-buster. slim-bullseye has been the default for 
awhile now, so if you currently aren't specifying a distro, that's the one 
you want to ensure nothing actually changes in your images while you test 
the new ones (unless you haven't built the image in many months).

Once you make sure you have the "bullseye", "slim-bullseye", "buster", or 
"slim-buster" distro specifier in your existing tags, start testing your 
images with "temurin" in place of "openjdk" and "jammy" (latest LTS Ubuntu 
release) or "focal" (previous LTS Ubuntu release) in place of whatever 
distro you were specifying before. So the two previous examples would 
become clojure:temurin-11-tools-deps-jammy and 
clojure:temurin-8-lein-2.9.8-focal (assuming you need to stay on the older 
release; move to jammy if possible), respectively.

We will be making jammy-based images available for all Java versions as 
well. Up until now we were only providing focal-based images.

This change will take effect in the next few days.

Let me know if you have any questions about this, and I apologize for the 
inconvenience.
