Current POI version is 5.2.5. So I presume the idea is to release a POI 6 with 
Java 11 only support. I'm -1 on this. I don't see any great advantage in only 
supporting Java 11. Java 8 is still widely supported by vendors.

https://endoflife.date/oracle-jdk says 6 more years of Java 8.

Hi,

for whatever reason I cannot reach both the Nabble and MarkMail archives to 
check if this has been discussed before, but I think it would be a good idea to 
bump the minimum Java version for POI 5 to 11. I’d also be ok (or rather like) 
17. What do you think?

Cheers,
Axel
