Review Comment:
   >  Interesting Temurin seems to be more timely with EA but usually slightly 
behind on GA?
   
   yep. But this is not necessarily a problem for us since we don't require 
both conditions at once. We could switch to zulu before release since we don't 
need EA during releases (edit: in fact, nothing should use EA during the 
release phase since EA builds may disappear after GA, this would cause problems 
when things are branched and need rebuilds later). I haven't watched sapmachine 
so far so I don't know how it behaves there.
