I don't understand you: JDK 8 is a dead end. There will be no new
features. So why do you expect new features from your libraries? Just
use lookup/collections/whatever from ${last nb version compatible with
$ancient toolchain} and be done with it.
You would also to expect people to keep writing Windows 95 compatible
applications just because you refuse to update.
The question is: How long do you expect us to stay in the past?

What do you expect them to do? A vote is called, there is a voting
period and later it is counted. This follows the procedures declared by
Apache. The only thing such a thread causes for me, to ensure, that hte
rules are literally followed.

Lie. Of course someone has to pay for the computing power and you might
not have noticed, but we already had to shift from travis to github
actions. Surely not because travis continued to provide the services
for free.
