Hello,
Sounds like a necessary move to me.

Hello folks,
The Java release cadence being what it is, Java 8 OpenJDK will reach
EOL in November 2026.
As such I propose to update our libs to Java 11 as a build target.
This includes MIME4J, JSPF, JDKIM and JSIEVE. I also proposes myself
to trigger releases before November 2026.
Similar moves had been done on other ASF projects, EG Apache Tika 3.x
requires Java 11.
Maintaining compatibility with Tika and a broader part of the Java
ecosystem is desirable so I propose to stick o JDK 11 and not higher
versions.
Thoughts?
Best regards,
Benoit TELLIER
