Yes, we had a discussion about it. Because Java 8 is bit old and not sexy anymore. On the other hand the industry still use it and for some reason the oracle extended the support till 2030 (?) I would also go ahead personally, but the big companies who uses hive are way more conservatives. To move even to JDK 11 for compile it would be make some big pain on them. Even if you are able to somehow compile it (especially for 11 I think it is possible) I don't think the community would accept it. Still to many ppl and enterprises use the java8. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
