Dong Lin updated FLINK-30501:
-----------------------------
Description:
Flink 1.15 and later versions require at least Java 11 to build from sources
[1], whereas the pom.xml specifies the source/target is 1.8.
This is inconsistent. We update our doc to mention that Java 8 is deprecated
instead of saying that Java 11 is required.
The statement "Fink requires at least Java 11 to build" was added in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-25247. However the JIRA title only
says "Inform users about deprecation". And the PR was not approved by any
committer other than the PR author.

Flink 1.15 and later versions require at least Java 11 to build from sources
[1], whereas the pom.xml specifies the source/target is 1.8.
This is inconsistent. We should either update pom.xml to require Java 11, or
remove the statement in our doc that Flink 1.15 require at least Java 11.
