Hello!

When I'm observing java stack, its usage, and adaptation of eclipse
temurin JDKs, I'm happily surprised by what I see. It seems that
temurin JDKs are used extensively, even more than our in-distro JDKs.

Originally - in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ThirdPartyLegacyJdks -  
I wrote
that jdk21 will be removed in f45, but it seems it can be removed
already in f44. From total java-stack(546 packages), only 26 requires
jdk21 for build[1]. Dropping jdk21 already for f44 would help our
quite constrained resources and also have a net benefit on the
infrastructure, since keeping it in Fedora 44 means keeping 21 alive
until May 2027 which is too long of a time for a duplicate legacy JDK,
especially when such a great and working alternative exist.

WDYT?


Best regards,
   J.
