directory elements of the full absolute path of the target installation 
directory must qualify as Java identifiers. In other words, the directory 
elements must not have any space characters (or non-Java identifier characters) 
in any of the path elements. This is required by the Oracle Java Specification

+### OpenJDK Version 21
+An OpenJDK-compatible build of Java 21, provided by one of the Open-Source 
providers, such as Azul Systems, Red Hat, SAP, Eclipse Temurin, etc, is 
required.
+All of the testing of this release has been performed with a Eclipse Temurin

-If your application only relies on the APIs of datasketches-java no special 
JVM arguments are required.
-However, if your application also directly relies on the APIs of the 
*datasketches-memory* component, 
-you may need the additional JVM argument 
**--add-modules=jdk.incubator.foreign**.
+This release uses the new Java Foreign Function & Memory (FFM) features that 
are in "preview" in Java 21.
+As a result, the JVM flag <nobr>**--enable-preview**</nobr> must be set at 
compile and at runtime.
 
-### Recommended Build Tool
-This DataSketches component is structured as a Maven project and Maven is the 
recommended Build Tool.
+**NOTE:** OpenJDK versions greater than 21 do not support running Java 21 
class files (Class ID 65) with preview code. The runtime JVM version must be 21.
 
-To run normal unit tests:
+**NOTE:** The Eclipse Compiler for Java (ECJ) version 21, used by default in 
both the Eclipse JDT IDE and the VScode IDE, will not allow compilation of 
preview code for Java version 21. Both Eclipse and VScode can be configured to 
use an OpenJDK compiler instead, but you will loose the incremental build 
capability of the ECJ.
+
+### DataSketches Memory 6.0.0
+
+This component depends on the 
[datasketches-memory-6.0.0](https://github.com/apache/datasketches-memory/tree/6.0.0)
 component, 
+
+## Compilation and Test using Maven
+This DataSketches component is structured as a Maven project and Maven is the 
recommended tool for compile and test.
+
+#### A Toolchain is required
+
+* You must have a JDK type toolchain defined in location 
*~/.m2/toolchains.xml* that specifies where to find a locally installed 
OpenJDK-compatible version 21.
+* Your default \$JAVA\_HOME compiler must be an OpenJDK compatible, specified 
in the toolchain, and may be a version greater than 21. Note that if your 
\$JAVA\_HOME is set to a Java version greater than 21, Maven will automatically 
use the Java 21 version specified in the toolchain instead. The included 
pom.xml specifies the necessary JVM flags, so no further action should be 
required.

Review Comment:
   "an OpenJDK compatible, ..." -- either remove "an" or add a word somewhere
