The page said JDK 9 compiles down to Java 6, which readers on JDK 17 or 21 take as still true. It now gives the range per JDK (9 to 11 down to Java 6, 12 to 19 down to Java 7, 20 and later down to Java 8), and the example defaults to `release` 8. The "Java 5 or below" section stays: its `[1.5,9)` toolchain is still the way to target Java 5. Part of apache/maven-site#1766. Verified: `javac --release` with JDK 11 accepts 6 and rejects 5; with JDK 21 accepts 8 and rejects 7. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
