Hi Chris, ZooKeeper is one of the projects that raised a Jira on the build failure. I think your concern is valid and our project is in the middle of deco’ing the support for Java 9, but - as others mentioned already - we didn’t expect that CI got broken suddenly.
Not a big deal IMHO - ZooKeeper will probably be supported on Java 8 and 11 from now on. Regards, Andor > On 2019.
