Hey, Jeremiah, Sorry to reply late. The team is pretty busy for Samza 1.0 preparation these days.
Regarding to Java 11 and the steps forward: 1. I don't have objection to adopt OpenJDK, as long as Samza code and compile and run on it. It might be an interesting issue since Samza also depends on other open source projects (like ZooKeeper and Kafka) which may not be test w/ OpenJDK yet. 2. It would be great if you can have some test build/run of Samza with Java 11 (I assume with OpenJDK?) and report the results back to the community 3. We can start a formal poll and vote when we know what it takes to adopt OpenJDK Does that sound good to you? Thanks! -Yi On Tue, Sep 25, 2018 at 6:16 AM Jeremiah Adams <jad...@helixeducation.com> wrote: > Has anyone had a chance to digest this information regarding Java11 and > OpenJDK release cadences? > > What would be next steps to drive adoption of the OpenJDK release cadence > (never participated in an apache proj) ? > > > Jeremiah Adams > Software Engineer > www.helixeducation.com > Blog | Twitter | Facebook | LinkedIn > > ________________________________________ > From: Jeremiah Adams <jad...@helixeducation.com> > Sent: Friday, September 14, 2018 11:06 AM > To: dev@samza.apache.org > Subject: [POSSIBLE PHISHING] Java 11, Oracle Java and OpenJDK Release > Cadence > > Java 11 is out on Sept., 25 and makes Java 8, 9 and 10 obsolete.
