Hi everybody. I’m sure this has been discussed over and over, so please accept my apologies if I’m just creating noise. I joined the OpenJDK effort to help provide a workaround to Nashorn being marked as deprecated.
From what I have been able to read on the web, the main rationales would be: - not enough resources to maintain it, the JS world is evolving too rapidly - users can switch to GraalVM I have to admit that I’m rather skeptical re adoption of GraalVM in large companies. I was wondering if some options had been considered: - move Nashorn out of the OpenJDK, such that more contributors can help, thanks to a more lightweight governance - incorporate the V8 engine, such that speed and language features stop being a problem - incorporate compatibility transpilers (like Babel) which is the technique used by the entire JS world to deal with cross-browser compatibility Any thoughts? n.b. as a side question, is there a web page where OpenJDK discussions content can be explored?
