Definitely good idea.

For what it's worth, we already run James on JDK17 (it was finally possible after getting rid of serialization library a while back; probably jump to JDK21 would be fine as well right now).

From building point of view (thus enforcing minimal JDK to be run on) - I don't see why anyone would still would want to stick with version 11. Java picked up speed and it's a good thing.

Hello guys,

Well currently James is based on JDK 11. Should we think about upgrading to at least the next LTS, JDK 17? (or why even not the current LTS, which is the JDK 21?) I saw it being asked by a community member on a PR a while ago (Antoine Duprat) and in our company, we would be glad for such an upgrade as well.

Might need a bit of work but the project could definitely benefit from it: records (finish the long verbose POJOs), pattern matching, better GC handling, etc.

Would other people be interested about it too? Is it a problem for some others 
in the community?

Rene.
