Well, I suppose that is true, for 2 more years. There-after, you'll only be supporting commercial and purchased JDK, which I was under the impression, is pretty much against the open source structure of Apache xD We'll see when JDK 8 get's discontinued, and Jakarta stays on paid for Java. But making the change and move to Jakarta on JDK 8 (till jakarta 10 minimum - 2026) may make apache commons only usable on paid for platforms.. This is a very important consideration to make in relation to Jakarta's statements, Oracle's statements, the EOL of JDK8, the 6 months rolling releases, and keeping apache free and open for use on Java. Moving to Jakarta is more than a library change, it's a ball and chain to JDK 8, for the complete and foreseeable future of Jakarta. These commons libraries are used in much more than just the thrown away, and picked up from the trash can, Java EE, and support for JDK 9 and up must be present, post 2022 ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
