I would prefer to keep the language on JDK 8 for a few more weeks until
most of the development team switched their clusters to JDK 11. For now
let's please focus on the release and make sure we don't have to cancel
yet another RC.
Regards,
Matthias

Hi devs,
Just to make it explicit, so far we have updated the project to work with java
11,
but this does not mean our language level and compile target is updated.
In practice currently you are still able to compile and run with JDK 8 since we
have not updated our language level yet.
I intend to update to Language Level 11 as default next week [1],
this would force everyone have to use Java 11.
unless people compile with a flag specifying language and compile level:
for java 8:
-P java.level=1.8
for java 11:
-P java.level=11
Best regards
Sebastian
