"But if it's too late for you, you can still revert to OpenJDK8 which is supported until June 2023 (if that's an option to you at all)."
Please correct me if I am misinformed but this is not consistent with the research I have been doing. 8 will no longer receive security updates from Oracle beginning Jan 2019. To continue receiving patches from Oracle, processors and end users must be licensed. Redhat has an OpenJDK but it also requires paid support. Other vendors build OpenJDK8 but this is getting too far off the beaten path for me to consider production worthy. I am currently evaluating each of our core java dependencies to determine if paying for this support is our best path forward until Java11 is widely adopted.

But if it's too late for you, you can still revert to OpenJDK8 which is supported until June 2023 (if that's an option to you at all). But seeing people concerned with a topic here on this list sure can speed things up. So thanks for writing, this is definitely on the table, and we will keep You guys updated!
