--------------------------------------------------------
Read it already.
Also, does derby still compile to Java 6 bytecode or now say 10.15 will always
compile to Java 9 bytecode? I assume the later.
Another suggestion, can 10.15 be a long term supported release. As in, future
bug fixes and features will be available for this release too. Backported if
you can say so.
I assume that we are dropping support for older JAVA versions but not
necessarily rewriting the code to support and take advantages of new features
in JAVA latest versions.
Essentially this will help interested developers do try and rewrite DERBY code
to take advantage of newer features.
There could then be two branches of DEVELOPERS for DERBY ... one that will look
into JAVA implementation and one that will look into the database part SQL
compliances and features additions.

> Is it possible to auto modify the existing source code using tools like
> Netbeans, and take advantage of the new features in JDK 1.8 for better
> multiuser performance and better utilization of current day multicore
