I think, we should discuss removing or limiting tests on JRE 8. For example: - We can run unit tests on a matrix that uses JRE 8 and 17 for the test suite and all available OSes. For JRE 8 we can use `maven-args` to enable additional profiles. - For the build we just use the `release` profile (so JRE 17 tests) and the `deploy` profile (it doesn't mess reproducibility as far as I could see). This should simplify the build and reproducibility: - Users of JDK 11+ can build Log4j and run tests, without any additional settings. - Users of JDK 8 of course can not build Log4j (some modules require JDK 11), but can build using JDK 11 + JRE 8 for the tests, by enabling some switches. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
