I'm not quite sure what is the killer feature in jdk 17 we really need in Maven? jdk 11 sounds like a nice upgrade if we want to have a large adoption of Maven 4.0 by the community. And btw nothing prevents people using jdk 17 if they want. But forcing users to jdk 17 and using the complicated toolchains is a different story. I feel like jdk 17 will reduce the adoption/upgrade and we will be there a long time maintaining the 3.x branch and we won't be able to migrate our plugins to the new 4.0 apis (and having 2 branches of plugins to maintain?) Comparing to Spring is not really accurate because there is a company behind it, so they have employees to maintains branches for their customers (because "you still want maintenance of spring xx with jdk 11 so hey too easy pay the support" :) ) > > Kind regards > Karl Heinz Marbaise > > > > > T > > > > On Tue, Jul 19, 2022 at 6:25 PM Karl Heinz Marbaise <[email protected] > > <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > > > > Hi to all, > > > > what do you think about using JDK17 as minimum requirement for > running > > the future Apache Maven 4.0.0 ? > > > > Kind regards > > Karl Heinz Marbaise > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] > > <mailto:[email protected]> > > For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] > > <mailto:[email protected]> > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] > >
