I worked through a bunch of outstanding QDox issues. Well under direction,
Claude and JulesAgent did.  I reached a snafu with something, and bumping
min-Java to 11 from 8 did the trick. I didn't think anything of it at the
time.

One of the bug commenters reminded me that some maven-plugins use QDox. So
I should ask about java versions here.

>From https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.thoughtworks.qdox/qdox/usages,
I can see that these do:

maven-javadoc-plugin
maven-compiler-plugin
maven-plugin-tools-annotations
plexus things
maven-plugin-tools-java
gmaven-runtime-support
maven-scr-plugin
(and others that I can't immediately guess are maven-core related)


Those maven bits and pieces can stick with the old version if they need JDK
8, or course, and only people who need one of the new features for newer
java source grammars, could force an <excludes> upgrade for themselves.

There's also the end of OSSRH portal for publishing which I've done in the
pom, but not yet all the form-filling online. Otherwise, I think I should
do a release soon, but y'all might have comments.
