If there were a move for Java versions, why not move to 17 (the latest LTS)? I don’t believe there were many breaking changes between those 11 and 17 and nothing even as close as the pain of jumping from 8 to 11. The only limiting factor I’m guessing would be the zookeeper libs, though a cursory search doesn’t show any issues with Java 17. Overall I would be for getting off Java 8 and would be even happier if we ended up on 17, though 11 would be fine.
