Hi Cesar,

Great! Thanks for your kind support. I built TomEE successfully using JDK
oracle64-1.8.0.241.

There's some ambiguity in the installation/build documentation for new
users/developers. In conclusion, we need to improve the Java compatibility
information provided on some pages.

In JIRA, I found two tickets
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-2539 and
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-2540 to add the
java-compatibility.adoc. We could use this document to link it from any
other installation documentation to make it clear what are the minimum
requirements.

Following a couple of paths:
1. From the homepage to installation pages
2. From the homepage to contribution (how to build) page.
There's no link referencing the "Java Compatibility with TomEE" page.

Also, I read in
https://github.com/apache/tomee/pull/479#issuecomment-500642682 about a
great idea to create a compatibility matrix.

I could work on both documentation improvements. Sounds that good, any
ideas?

As a side note, to have faster results during the verification of your

Cool beans! I found the same command in the documentation. Thanks.
