I think this is something where the project as a whole needs a policy.
People working on a project all have to agree on what programming language
they're using.
I like the "last LTS" rule, and I'm still hoping the openjdk project will
have well-defined LTS releases.

Many thanks with the link about the Platforms supported:

This appears to be a list of the platforms that are supported (certified) by
Oracle.  Where can I find the list of platforms that are supported by
OpenJDK?  For example, what about the following platforms that don't appear
on the Oracle list:

Windows x86
Linux x86
aarch32 (ARMv7 32-bit)
aarch64 (ARMv8 64-bit)

Are all these supported for OpenJDK 9, 10 and 11?
