Dear all,

What do you think about stopping support Java 8 as NetBeans runtime from 12.1 and on?

Neil mentioned it in the user's chat first regarding that we have issues with nb-javac from time to time.

As we know our mid term plan is/was to rely on javac tooling instead of habing to maintain the nb-javac fork.

Right now NetBeans run fairly well on standard javac, however when the IDE is running on Java 8 we need the nb-javac.

I think removing Java 8 support as runtime shall be not a big deal, it would be a few thing less to worry about. During the 12.x cycle we could perfect our stuff on Java 11.
