Right I think that's an important discussion point. I was imagining we'd still compile on Java 8, but work out any issues that'd prevent it from running in Java 11. I don't know if this is possible. If this is a situation where we'd have to drop Java 8 support or there are complicated or non-optimal trade-offs, then I think we probably need to move ahead with Java 8 and discuss the impact of Java 11 a bit more. -David
