The FreeCol project does not require a specific Java implementation. If someone wants to build it on openjdk, oracle Java, or shark-mounted-laser Java that is fine. We do specify a minimum Java language version, because we are primarily concerned with making code + artwork + game resources rather than packaging. That said, we have traditionally distributed freecol packaged for various platforms from the website as a convenience. The .jar files there are built with whatever-the-release-manager-is-using Java. When I am the release manager that has been openjdk, because that is conveniently installed on my main development machine. Perhaps it was oracle Java in the past, I do not know. I am pretty sure we have people running our .jar or derivatives on non-openjdk run time environments, which is good. Cheers, Mike Pope
