I enforced now JDK9 or newer on Macs for Sling API in https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-api/commit/39a13263d46b8ffe4a749e09805e855ca80a0640 <https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-api/commit/39a13263d46b8ffe4a749e09805e855ca80a0640>. We can extend to other operating systems if necessary.
