Still, regardless of when we update to 27, at the October CPU both 26.0.2 and 26.0.2.1 will be obsolete. One thing we do internally with some of our test jobs is to use two JDKs: one for running gradle (e.g., JDK 25.x) and a separate boot JDK for building FX. We use this to do a weekly test run using the latest JDK 28 promoted build. Ambarish and I have toyed with the idea of proposing this as a way to be able to bump our boot JDK sooner (we could do it right after each JDK ships without having to update gradle). The downside is that we then need to download two JDKs, which is why we haven't yet proposed it. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/2265#issuecomment-5361575359
