(Google specifically does not want interns working on refactoring or maintenance work. New feature development only.) Looking around I found this which appears to be a few notes on the subject, but not more: https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/multirelease.html So I gather we don't have any multirelease support in maven yet, and I don't think any is under way. That might be tractable for an intern team provided they started with a clear design of what the input and the output look like. Output is defined by the Java specs. For input, we'd need to understand the source layout for multi-release jars. E.g. src main java java9 java14 or what exactly. We would also need to know how the pom.xml is going to change to support this. If the maintainers think we can develop, agree on, and commit to a specification for multirelease support in Maven within the next month, then this could work. Does that sound useful and feasible? -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elh...@ibiblio.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
