Brian, any Chance you could make a stacked 100% graph for every *week*
of the past two years?
We could then see where we are heading…
(or the raw numbers per week, so we could work with that).

That's probably a lot to ask, but I think it will show us how "fast"
the progression was (and will be).

@Tamas please consider the support times are different by vendor.
I have seen Java 8 support well beyond 2030 *shudder*.

Seeing all those numbers, I now feel a lot more confident that Maven 4
should be 17 (runtime), 21 (build)
and Java 8 users should stay with 3.x.x.
Elliotte gave a good reason for this: There are two camps now (read: ALREADY).
There is no reason to not go with either of them.
