I hate it when people on the commons list start whining about dropping support for java version -17 (joke, exaggeration warning), but here I am about to do it.
I still run 0.19. A fair number of production clusters run 0.18.3. Many run 0.20 Hopefully when 1.0 comes out there will be a large move to that, but is it important yet to gauge where our largest audience is or even will be in, say, 6-12 months? I don't see a large benefit to moving to the latest just because it is the latest. I do see a benefit in moving to a future-proof API sooner rather than later, but is 0.22 realistic yet?
