Hi guys,
We have a decision to take re the docker image.
Until now we were supporting the arm64v8 architecture. However due to some
changes, it's now ony supported with java11. So we have 2 solutions for the
tomcat base image to use:
1) stay on java8 and move to the adoptopenjdk base image (so that we get java
patches) BUT drop support for arm64v8 architectures
2) move to java11 and move to the adoptopenjdk base image (so that we get java
patches) and keep support for arm64v8 archietectures
My POV is that we should do 1) since XWiki is supposed to run well on Java11
(it may even be faster on it?) and we want it to work on it anyway. We also
test it with our docker tests every week
Side note: we could also decide to move to java11 everywhere on our CI agents
and keep some tests weekly on java8 (ie invert the current situation)
WDYT?
I'm +1 to move our Docker images to Java 11, however I wouldn't do the
change for our CI right now: according to
https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/devecosystem-2019/java/ java8 is still the
most used java version so I'd say it's better to have both version
tested (Java11 with docker test and java8 with our standard build)

Thanks
