Hi Lewis,

maybe it's still too early to leave Java 8 behind.

Hadoop 3.3 supports JDK 11 as runtime, lower versions do not:
  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/HADOOP/Hadoop+Java+Versions
  https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r3.3.0/index.html

It might take some time until most users have upgraded, esp. because Hadoop
versions based on JDK 7 or 8 are still maintained.

It's good if Nutch compiles and runs on JDK 11 but we should take care that
this is also the case using Java 8.

Best,
Sebastian

Hi dev@,
Does anyone have any opinions about moving past JDK1.8?
Maybe JDK1.8 --> JDK11 LTS?

 From what I can see the following files need updated

        modified:   .github/workflows/master-build.yml
        modified:   default.properties
        modified:   ivy/mvn.template

We would also update the Jenkins job configuration(s).

Thanks for any thoughts.
Best
Lewis
