Thanks for following up with this. I have mixed feelings to see the portable Java DirectRunner go, but I'm in favor of this change because it removes a lot of code that we do not really make use of.

Thanks for providing all this background on the PR. It is very easy to see where it came from. Definitely nice to have less code and fewer things that can break. Perhaps lazy consensus is enough.

    Hey everyone,

    I made a preliminary PR for removing all the Java Reference Runner
    code (PR-8380 <https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/8380>) since I
    wanted to see if it could be done easily. It seems to be working
    fine, so I wanted to open up this discussion to make sure people are
    still in agreement on getting rid of this code and that people don't
    have any concerns.

    For those who need additional context about this, this previous
    thread
    
<https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/b235f8ee55a737ea399756edd80b1218ed34d3439f7b0ed59bfa8e40@%3Cdev.beam.apache.org%3E>
    is where we discussed deprecating the Java Reference Runner (in some
    places it's called the ULR or Universal Local Runner, but it's the
    same thing). Then there's this thread
    
<https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/0b68efce9b7f2c5297b32d09e5d903e9b354199fe2ce446fbcd240bc@%3Cdev.beam.apache.org%3E>
    where we discussed removing the code from the repo since it's been
    deprecated.

    If no one has any objections to trying to remove the code I'll have
    someone review the PR I wrote and start a vote to have it merged.

    Thanks,
    Daniel Oliveira
